Idk if it's just my algorithm but I get fed a lot of videos about small time corruption. And even some interesting theories about congress critters trades, that end up being accurate weeks before they are disclosed. I can see why they want this shut down. I can also see why China is laughing. "Oh you wanted free press, and the first amendment... well look how easy we can make it for your citizens to call you out in real time"
