I believe today Facebook also banned Louis Farrakhan, but that was a
   transparent effort to appear 'even handed' while actually going after
   conservative (and probably libertarian groups) as well.   Farrakhan has
   been a 'hater' for well over 30 years.  Waiting until now to ban him is
   laughingly pretextual.

   Plus everyone censored off in prior sweeps.
   Many millions of combined followers and contributors.
   All the top social sites trending censors.
   Includes Instagram and all other properties, and all syndication,
   and even so much as praise, support for, "representation" and
   convo about all censored persons and entities are now triggering
   shadow bans, demonetization, account deletion, etc on

   Arps will be sentenced on June 14 and faces a maximum penalty of 14
   years in prison for the crime of sharing the footage.
   New Zealanders can also face up to 10 years prison for “knowingly”
   possessing a copy of the Christchurch shooting livestream or the
   shooter’s manifesto which he left in the wake of his attack.
   Corporations, including web hosts, face an additional $200,000 AUD
   fine under the same law for allowing users to have and distribute the
   video.
   Footage of the attack, including the shooter’s manifesto are illegal
   to view, possess and distribute in New Zealand.
   Last month, Australian and New Zealand telecommunication companies
   were quick to block websites that they thought would distribute the
   content, such as ZeroHedge, 8chan and 4chan.
   Another New Zealand man, 18, faces up to 28 years in prison for
   sharing the livestream.
   MP's said the measures were a "necessary first step" and should be
   strengthened by independent regulation and financial penalties for
   firms that were sluggish to remove material.
   Meanwhile, the Islamic terrorist organisation of Hamas is still
   permitted to use Facebook and Instagram.
   World Press Freedom Day: Jailed for a painting
   Today marks World Press Freedom Day. Around the world, hundreds of
   journalists are imprisoned for doing their jobs, and the highest
   number is in Turkey - according to the Committee to Protect
   Journalists.
   Zehra Doğan, a Kurdish journalist and artist, was sentenced to nearly
   three years in a Turkish jail for painting a picture. Her story gained
   worldwide attention in 2018 after Banksy drew a mural calling for her
   release.
   In jail, Doğan secretly published a newspaper and created materials to
   paint. Now released, she is determined to continue sharing stories.
