WAR ON FREE SPEECH: Matt Taibbi on Telegram Founder Pavel Durov’s Arrest, US Government Censorship
MATT TAIBBI: 'There's been this shift in the way journalists look at free speech. They seem to think these problems won't ever come to their door, when actually journalists historically are going to be the first in line to encounter problems.'

--------------------
On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Matt Taibbi, Co-Publisher of ‘Twitter Files’, Co-Host of the ‘America This Week’ Podcast, and Former Contributing Editor of the Rolling Stone magazine. He discusses the arrest of Telegram Founder Pavel Durov and why it marks a paradigm shift in free speech and censorship in Western countries, the creeping digital censorship since the passing of the Digital Services Act in Europe, the precedent set by arresting Durov for the crimes of users using his platform, the significance of Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg’s letter to the House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan admitting that the Biden Administration had pressured him to censor COVID-19 content and the Hunter Biden laptop story, his time in Russia and the shift in the journalistic environment there, the creeping move towards censorship in the US following Donald Trump’s victory in 2016 and Brexit, the shift of the priorities of the US government from counter-terrorism to monitoring speech domestically, why he has called Elon Musk ‘disappointing’ on the issue of free speech and his call for a conversation with Elon Musk to resolve their differences stemming from their dispute on Substack, and much more.
