This legislation is the opposite of freedom of speech and is actually a perfect example of FOSIMO. It is shifting the control of speech from the public sphere into governmental control. Now they will have a court of law and legislative bodies deciding what is acceptable speech for social media.

All speech should be acceptable, according to the Polish government. It’s not right for a private entity to regulate speech. This law puts the locus of control back in the hands of government, but nowhere does it imply that the government will censor the citizens of Poland. It promises the opposite: that their voices will be heard instead of stamped out by the big tech companies.
