The hypocrisy is staggering.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In response to the United Kingdom\u2019s Online Safety Act (OSA) driving censorship across Britain, the United States is stepping in with a new initiative to promote free speech abroad. Last month the U.S. State Department unveiled <a href=\"http:\/\/freedom.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">Freedom.gov<\/a>, a website, likely using a built-in virtual private network (VPN), that will allow foreign nationals to use the internet unfettered by local content restrictions or government surveillance. Led by Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy Sarah Rogers, Freedom.gov is intended to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us-plans-online-portal-bypass-content-bans-europe-elsewhere-2026-02-18\/\" target=\"_blank\">counter censorship<\/a> abroad. <\/p>\n<p>The problem is, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act gives the U.S. government the power to surveil noncitizens without a warrant. Why would young voices in the UK replace their own government\u2019s suppression and censorship with the American\u2019s? If the U.S. is serious about free speech around the world, they should let Section 702 expire in April.<\/p>\n<p>This is not to say Freedom.gov can\u2019t be a powerful tool for free speech, or that the administration\u2019s concerns are not legitimate. The UK government\u2019s use of the Public Order Act and the OSA\u2019s \u201cFalse Communications Offence\u201d to arrest and charge <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/c07p7v2nn8mo\" target=\"_blank\">comedians<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetimes.com\/uk\/crime\/article\/police-make-30-arrests-a-day-for-offensive-online-messages-zbv886tqf\" target=\"_blank\">parents<\/a> is extraordinarily undemocratic. And while supporters will say that these are isolated incidents without broader repercussions, one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/journals\/communication\/articles\/10.3389\/fcomm.2025.1565289\/full#sec30\" target=\"_blank\">2025 study<\/a> of 548 UK residents showed worry about punishment was a significant driver for individuals to self-censor. This effect was particularly pronounced among conservatives and the non-political. <\/p>\n<p>The administration\u2019s plans to push back on this censorship should be celebrated. But it\u2019s unclear how exactly Freedom.gov would achieve this goal. One method that has been suggested is the <a href=\"https:\/\/cybernews.com\/news\/trump-state-department-freedom-gov-vpn-europe-content-bans\/\" target=\"_blank\">use of a built-in VPN<\/a> to reroute internet traffic to the U.S. This would allow users to bypass content restrictions mandated by the UK and encrypt their web traffic. By returning anonymity to users and allowing them to freely express themselves online without fear of arrest or censorship, Freedom.gov could be a boon in the fight for freedom of expression around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is that Section 702 sends the message to the rest of the world that they aren\u2019t allowed to surveil and silence their citizens, but we are.<\/p>\n<p>Allowing this measure to expire would act as such a potent signal. It is one of the executive branch\u2019s most powerful legal tools for law enforcement operations, but it is also one of its most abused. Whether it&#8217;s the <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/4110850-fbi-improperly-used-702-surveillance-powers-on-us-senator\/\" target=\"_blank\">Biden administration<\/a> using it to surveil a U.S. Senator, or the NSA deploying it to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/warrantless-surveillance-under-section-702-of-fisa\" target=\"_blank\">conduct mass surveillance<\/a> of all communications flowing in and out of the U.S., Section 702 represents the same type of illiberal and antidemocratic surveillance that is bringing the OSA under fire. <\/p>\n<p>The US should lead the world in allowing and encouraging free expression. Freedom.gov could be an extraordinary project demonstrating a commitment to these goals. The best way to earn the trust of users is for Congress to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eff.org\/deeplinks\/2024\/11\/nsa-surveillance-and-section-702-fisa-2024-year-review\" target=\"_blank\">end the provision<\/a> that has fed the American mass surveillance regime for decades. When Freedom.gov launches, it should be a monument to the American principles of free speech, not hypocrisy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Under the Trump Administration, the United States is asserting itself as the champion of global free speech online.
