This is a severe blow against holding politicians accountable and informing the public on state wide corruption and abuse of power. This bill essentially bans criticizing those in office, by unofficial media sources, which is a horrible precedent to uphold. Especially given the monopolistic and heavily centralized nature of the media atm.

- IXxXI 7y agoIt doesnt ban fake content. There are no guidelines or terms for separating legit content from lies. It merely bans criticism from anonymous bloggers and independent news sources that aren't part of the mainstream media.
