Is 4chan the perfect Pirate Bay poster child to justify wider UK site-blocking?

Sure, 4chan is a cesspool, but what if I start a replacement? How does the UK block it? Do we end up with an allowlist only internet?

That's the thing, one day you won't be able to.

You'll only be able to connect to domains that have been bought with a state-issued ID and digitally signed. If you run afoul of the rules, you'll be taken down, fined, or worse.

The means to publish and consume will be taken from us.

"Trusted" computing. "You wouldn't download a car." "Think of the children". "Free speech allows hate."

Within a generation of complete and total control of communications, we will be slaves. Powerless, impotent, unable to organize, disposable fodder.

1984 is coming.
