Pravda is the most famous example
UK “D-notices” are another great example
And the Sedition Act, as well as the Comstock Act
- doo_daa 2mo agoAren't the UK's D-notices advisory. I thought they could be (and often are) ignored by media outlets. I don't think they warrant a mention alongside Pravda.
- iamnothere 2mo agoTrue, I suppose UK “super injunctions” would be more apt, although the D-notice system has been used multiple times to successfully prevent information from reaching the public.
