The #DSA also includes provisions to strengthen #FreedomOfSpeech:
Firstly, citizens can legally contest moderation decisions and get them overturned (something that was impossible before).
Of the 10000 cases in the first year, 7500 were successfully overturned.

"German banks are systematically terminating accounts belonging to journalists and media outlets without explanation..."
"Approximately 40 independent media organizations have lost banking access since 2020."
"This is financial infrastructure weaponized for political control."

I'd love to get some help from my network here: For a letter I am writing, I am looking for the argumentation that the #US government uses against the #European #DSA . I have seen instances where, e.g. #Rubio and #JDVance state that #FreedomOfSpeech is threatened. Is this the only argument they come up with? I would be interested in links to other arguments they make.
By the way: I do know what the *actual* reasons are for #lobbying against the DSA - I'm interested in their talking points here.
No plan to visit #US in the next future...

#GazaProtests #UK #FreedomOfSpeech = #Illegal
#UKpolitics has gone completely mad !
While [white supremacist] racist can roam the streets giving NAZI-saluts and threatening muslims. A Palestine doctor gets arrested for speaking her mind. And possibly loses her license to practice medicine. Apparently the NHS has enough personel.
Beating up a Muslim is not as bad as having an opinion.

British-Palestinian NHS doctor Rahmeh Aladwan was arrested by UK police on October 21 for voicing criticism of Israel’s war on Gaza and joining pro-Palestine protests.
Her arrest came just two days before a Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service hearing that will decide whether she can continue to practise medicine in the UK."
