Over the last 24 hours, former President Barack Obama and twice-failed
presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton have come out against free speech
- calling for big tech to go further to censor views they disagree
with.

On Thursday, Obama told an audience at Stanford University that tech
companies are "turbo-charging some of humanity’s worst impulses,"
adding "One of the biggest reasons for the weakening of democracy is
the profound change that’s taken place in how we communicate and
consume information."

He then said that people are 'dying because of disinformation.'

Obama's 'misinformation' shtick was largely a repeat of a speech he
gave two weeks ago in Chicago, when he claimed "You have to fight to
provide people [with] the information they need to be free and
self-governing." In other words, government-approved narratives.

As The Federalist noted, however, Obama "Spied on the Donald Trump
campaign with a secret court warrant backed by the Hillary Clinton
campaign-funded Christopher Steele dossier which, in an ironic twist,
was the product of Russian disinformation. Democrats used this
disinformation to repeatedly smear President Trump and undermine the
integrity of the 2016 election."

Hillary Clinton joined the fray on Thursday, tweeting "For too long,
tech platforms have amplified disinformation and extremism with no
accountability," and called on "our transatlantic allies to push the
Digital Services Act," aimed at regulating online platforms.

Of course, Hillary Clinton funded the Russian disinfo dossier that
Obama's administration used against Trump, and the former British spy
that was paid to fabricate it pushed it to major news outlets which
peddled the misinformation as long as they could squeeze blood from
that stone.

What was that about misinformation, Hillary?

    Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server
linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.
