Notes
gollark: It makes everyone libleft!
gollark: Well, I generally err on the side of "things should preferentially not be restricted", as a libcenter-according-to-the-political-compass.
gollark: No, just *some* access to them for citizens.
gollark: Take, er, guns, knives, *end to end encryption* now (though they seem to just be trying to backdoor that), unfiltered internet connections...
gollark: For example, the UK's solution to anything dangerous or which can be misused somehow is "BAN IT!"
