🇪🇺❌🗣 The EU ordered YouTube to take down a video from a Finnish podcast which criticised the Chat Control initiative.
Puheenaihe podcast is a Finnish current affairs program with 60k subscribers. In this episode, Peter Sund, CEO of the Finnish Information Security Cluster (Kyberala ry) offered pointed criticism of the EU's new Chat Control directive, which was enacted under questionable circumstances.
Because the media is in Finnish, it is highly likely the censorship request came from a Finnish government official or a related party.
This makes it troublesome.
Because the Finnish constitution §12 guarantees freedom of expression.
Preventing political publications is a criminal offence: Abuse of Official Position, punishable by a fine or imprisonment for up to two years.
The particular episode remains available in the EU on Apple Music and Spotify.
Note that this is not automated YouTube copyright take down system or other automated system, because then the video would be blocked globally.
Because it is blocked only inside the EU the request to take down must have come from EU truth flaggers that speak Finnish.
The video does not contain hate speech or any questionable material.
In Finland political speech is protected, even more than regular speech. Discussing about the EU legislation is very political.
There is literally no reason to take it down except for 1) you are a butthurt politician who voted for chat control 2) you are an overzealous EU Digital Services Act truth flagger.
In both cases it is a crime in Finland, and a punishable offense, because you use authority and power to suppress legal political speech.

PN I know I disappeared for awhile. I’ve been writing a little but not much. I had a death in my family and it hit hard. I’m trying to get moving but having a hard time.
I want you to know my husband works for one of the largest trucking companies in the country driving heavy haul. He delivers feed to all the chickens out here in the pacific nw. Up and down Wa and Or. He will not be participating in the protest 10/1 due to the fact that he is company and this job was hard to find. He feels diesel is going up in a very bad way. That’s the word with the truckers. If things continue the way they are it may be $8-10 a gallon in ten days. They are trying to break us. His company subsides the diesel through the government so they don’t feel the effect except when seeing the pumps. He feels that they will be affected heavily by the end of the month, the company rigs that is. It’s going to get very nasty and with all this stuff in the middle east with both straits, as you already ...

This doesn't just go for ChatGPT but ALL AI chatbots.
Data is the new oil in the age of technocracy.
Once you put your life into a machine, you don't control where that information goes next.
Think before you share.
I am hearing from farmers who are confirming — given diesel prices, they are walking away from their crops.
The math just doesn't add up for them. It is economically unviable to farm.
And as they destroy the family farms, they roll out the gene-edited food... with extremely dangerous consequences to all living creatures (especially microbiome).
Folks are feeling the pain from diesel and are wondering what's going on — ensure they get the big picture agenda, not some partisan blame game nonsense. Spread the word.
