Online censorship even worse than 'Twitter Files' reveal, as leftists plan to ban ALL content they disagree with

A lengthy Twitter thread from The Daily Wire's Michael Knowles posted this week explains that online censorship is even worse than what has been revealed by successive dumps of "Twitter Files," with left-wing extremists throughout the West preparing to ban nearly all content they can't otherwise suppress or that they disagree with. "If you thought the Twitter Files were as bad as it gets for the “Trust & Safety” of Big Tech merging with government, you ain't seen nothin' yet," he begins the thread, which was posted on Thursday. "Safety by Design' might be the biggest tech threat you’ve never heard of. The World Economic Forum, the Australian Government, and a radical bureaucrat named Julie Inman Grant are using it to impose their woke ideology onto the internet for everyone worldwide," he continued before going on to explain what he has discovered. "You may remember Julie Grant, the Australian eSafety commissioner, from this viral World Economic Forum clip last year in which she proposed a 'recalibration' of free speech," he wrote in a post that contained a video clip of Grant speaking at a conference with others. In his next post, he included a clip of Grant speaking at a May 2022 event called, "Responsible Tech Summit: Improving Digital Spaces." "After beginning her career in DC, Grant tried to become a 'safety antagonist' — her words — at Microsoft, Adobe, and pre-Elon Twitter. She left Big Tech after her push for 'Safety by Design' fell flat and went where her scheme for control was welcome: the Australian Gov & WEF," Knowles continued. He pointed out that the eSafety Commissioner appears to be on the level -- interested in taking down content such as child pornography. However, he said that the office doesn't stop at what is simply illegal. Rather, the office ventures into whatever its left-wing bureaucracy deems "harmful." "Every so often," Knowles writes, "we hear what that means." "In between Grant's apparent desire to have app stores ban more than Parler and her mockery of 'middle-aged caucasian men,' you might have noticed two key mentions: 'harm' and 'basic online safety expectations,' which fall under 'Safety by Design.' So, what is Safety by Design?" he continued. Knowles explained that the concept of "Safety by Design" is premised on a notion that there is no way government regulators can keep up with the latest tech innovations, so leftist regulatory preferences simply have to be inserted into the technology itself so they can ban and censor at whim based on what they deem 'harmful content.' Think anything that runs counter to the current government narratives about "climate change," recycling, and the COVID-19 pandemic. "In order to operate in Australia and many more countries soon if WEF has its way...a company would have to abide by these 'basic online safety expectations' and lean into the 'safety' pushed by the eSafety Commissioner and the WEF," Knowles wrote. He noted further: Here are just a few screenshots from the eSafety website’s “enterprise” training course for tech companies. It lists "hate speech," "individual identity attacks," "disinformation/misinformation," and "conspiracy content" as items for the companies to suppress. eSafety even has a page specifically for female journalists, singling out blowback they may receive from reporting on "right-wing groups." As if conservative women reporting on leftists don't receive the same or worse sorts of threats in their inboxes. But why should you care if you don't live in Australia? Because, as Knowles points out, the WEF is ready to export "Saftey by Design" globally, so it won't matter where you live. "The WEF is currently hosting its annual meeting of globalists in Davos. They aren’t meeting to braid each other's hair. They are meeting to make decisions about our lives and our children’s lives. I'm paying attention. Are you?" he concluded.
