Abandon all hope, ye who seek reflective reasoning from this government.

But my guess is that less public access to national information helps, and does not hinder, a speed-run to autocracy.

I dunno. I'm very much not a Trump fan, but I don't see how restricting access to "national information" would help him. And if it would, how does restricting access to one of them help him?

I could more see this as being just random action without any real purpose, or aimed at petty revenge on someone, or something.

More broadly, ignorance and stupidity amongst the general population benefit some politicians.
