- lazaroclapp 10y agoIn all fairness, it does not establish a censor. It establishes an organization for: a) studying propaganda and b) producing [counter-]propaganda. Seems like a reasonable response, as long as it doesn't go up to censorship, "information sovereignty" or any similar monstrosities. The US has played the propaganda game in the past, what it doesn't do often is political censorship, it doesn't look to me like the CFPDA changes that.
