Guys, if you’re in the EU, I really, really can’t stress enough that you should start looking into VPN’s if you want to continue having regular access to the internet in the future. Especially to avoid things like news censorship.

I’m so sorry about Articles 11/13, but it is imperative to start looking into work arounds before it’s potentially too late. Especially if you work in media coverage.

And, of course, keep resisting and spreading awareness to keep this thing from fully passing.

Stop spreading misinformation.
