'Don't F*ck With First Amendment' | US Plots REVENGE On UK's Keir Starmer & OFCOM In Censorship War
from Harry Cole Saves The West · host News UK
Harry Cole is joined by Preston Byrne, a lawyer and free speech specialist, who is already taking on UK regulator Ofcom over the Online Safety Act. Governments across Asia and Europe are moving fast to rein in Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok. Malaysia and Indonesia are banning it outright, while here in Britain, Ofcom is launching a formal investigation into X over Grok’s image generation. The official reason is child safety and illegal images. But critics say this is about something much bigger: whether British regulators can police lawful American speech far beyond their borders.
