    I work at a web hosting company and we’d get requests from “da guberment”. They were usually warrants and asking us to transfer data.

    Never ever did they go, “Keep that racist white power pushing for violence website up and available to the public”. Without legal action, a govt can’t demand a private company what to do.

    Not saying they haven’t tried, but we have the lawyers give us the direction to take.

      Thats not the kind of thing right-wing fanboi spez was talking about. He was talking about sleaze like miller and bannon and the rest of the gruesome fearwraiths that made up dipshit don’s legendary administation of heroos pressuring him to keep the pepe taps open.
