🇺🇸🇬🇧 4CHAN TO UK: SCREW YOUR FINE - WE’RE AMERICANS, NOT SUBJECTS The UK’s media nanny Ofcom tried to slap 4chan with a £20K fine (plus daily penalties) under its shiny new Online Safety Act - 4chan’s response? Cry harder. Their attorney called Ofcom’s probe “an illegal campaign of harassment” and reminded them that the First Amendment doesn’t bend for some overreaching British bureaucrat with a clipboard. “Foreign penal fines and censorship codes don’t fly here,” the legal team posted - adding they’re ready to go to U.S federal court and have already briefed American authorities. This is what happens when a country with no free speech tries to lecture the internet: a full-blown diplomatic tantrum over a message board they can’t control. Source: BBC
