Bill: Free Up The Media Act 4271
Details
Submitted by[?]: Unsubmissive Beluzian Workers Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 4272
Description[?]:
| I see no reason why we as a progressive nation should restrict media from entering our internet. Restricting media will only show our nation's disregard for cyber rights. People should be free to browse whatever they want, whenever they want (but at the same time making sure that they don't enter the dark web or terrorist organisation publications). |

| Message | In support of 2. Again, media should be free, nevertheless, international media demands no special privileges. i.e. the article stating, 'undergoes same regulations as domestic media' is relevant. Whether there are regulations or not, international media must be treated at par with our domestic media. |
