The Internet age provided people with a new way to communicate, which also broke the exclusive communication channels of government and corporations. For the first time, anyone could set up and broadcast to the world (e.g. YouTube, Twitter, Facebook etc). A government's worst nightmare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInformation and communication were no longer subject to censorship and control. Alternative viewpoints could be expressed and distributed for free to anyone. If knowledge is power, then the traditional methods of \"controlling the narrative\", and the information that people receive which they can use to make decisions, are gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe reaction of power has been to systematically suppress and censor media platforms, and enact laws to restrict the communication of opinions and viewpoints. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThink of this document not just as a list of words, but as a warning signal.
