Andrew Lowenthal joins me to unpack how governments and institutions respond when they start losing authority and public trust. Instead of transparency, they build censorship systems—often through NGOs, tech platforms, and new legislation—to control the information environment.

We discussed:

• The global expansion of censorship laws
• Australia’s hate speech and age-verification laws
• The censorship industrial complex revealed in the Twitter Files
• NGOs and government funding shaping speech controls
• Why establishment parties unite against populism
• Bitcoin and Nostr as censorship-resistant tools
