BitChute CEO Ray Vahey is calling on digital platforms around the world to stand up to the UK’s censorship law, the Online Safety Act, warning that the law marks a dangerous turning point for internet freedom and could set a global precedent for state-imposed censorship and surveillance. In a video address, Vahey described the legislation as a direct threat to open discourse and civil liberties online. He accused the UK government of using the law to pressure companies into becoming enforcers of its speech controls.
