This stuff started from the Online Safety Act 2023 passed under Rishi Sunak's Tory government.
For some reason Americans, including Musk, go all partisan and feel the need to blame speech restriction on the lefty party but it's not what happened.
No, it started with the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA), passed under Tony Blair's Labour government.
I'll skip the same extreme partisan rant, but replacing Musk with Soros or whoever.
