My letter has been included in this journal's special section on #censorship of history: https://persimmontree.org/fall-2025/censoring-history/#DefendResearch

#Censorship of national park.service information is starting to kick in. See https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/climate/trump-park-service-slavery…

Very pleased to share that my article on #censorship and federally supported information is out in the Summer issue of "Documents to the People." Much appreciation to the peer reviewers and editor for asking good questions and helping to improve it.

Since the UK and to an extant the EU governments like age verification so much and asking for photo ID from people for using the internet, how long until the provider that handles these verifications has a data breach?
Of course, the politicians will be fine, they probably all have their VPN apps which have likely been filed as an expense somewhere.

I wonder how the #OnlineSafetyAct will try to handle P2P "user-to-user services".

Sue Parfitt / Palestine Action / UK censorship
"An 83-year-old retired priest has been arrested for defying a newly enforced ban on pro-Palestinian group Palestine Action, just hours after the group was formally outlawed by the UK government.
"The Reverend Sue Parfitt, from Bristol, was detained for holding a placard that read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” She was among more than 27 people arrested on Saturday for acts of defiance against the proscription."

Palestine Action / UK censorship
Good article from @….
"While the groups actions may constitute criminal damage, their actions do not represent an attempt to induce fear in the population by creating an imminent threat to life. ...
"Proscribing Palestine Action as terrorists is not about public safety – it is about suppressing protest that we may disagree or agree with, but that stands well short of being an attempt to strike fear into the British public through the use of indiscriminate violence against people. In equating support of damage to military property with support of terrorism, it endangers legitimate debate about the UK-Israel arms trade. ...
"As there is no public evidence of any link to terrorism or support of terrorist groups from Palestine Action, Open Rights Group supports their decision to appeal proscription. While we may have differing opinions on their tactics, we stand against this attack on their right to exist and speak out."
