> Officially, police are strictly forbidden from intercepting migrant boats at sea as they attempt to cross the #EnglishChannel.

It would force browser providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites present on a government provided list. Such a move will overturn decades of established content moderation norms and provide a playbook for authoritarian governments"
