UK: Ruling class moving on, prepping measures against protests
  • Anyone who views terrorist propaganda once online can be jailed for up to 15 years under new laws that have sparked human rights concerns.

    Originally law stated that people would have to access propaganda “on three or more different occasions” to commit a terror offence. But the benchmark was removed from the draft law, meaning a single click is now illegal.

    Journalists, academic researchers or people who had “no reason to believe” they were accessing terrorist propaganda are exempt.

    Security officials have told The Independent that discretion will be exercised and the law will help prosecute extremists in cases where other offences cannot be proven, or to prevent radicalization.

    Do not worry, soon lot of stuff will be declared "extremist materials". Even protesting against huge life issues will be called extremism and reading about real capitalism nature will be condemned even sooner.
