"The government has also proposed measures that would force companies to filter out "legal but harmful" material"

This isn't government censorship though. It is just a private company that can choose to comply with the law or not. Something something not censorship. Something something children!!

Looks like you got down voted for that. lol. HN never disappoints. Have my upvote. You are 100% correct. The UK and Australia (and to an extent the USA) have been looking enviously at the social credit rating that China has put in place and want to start installing the foundation of such a system in our countries, and we should fight it whenever we can and call it out for what it is.
