Defend Civil Liberties: Challenge the Online Censorship Law

Background

The Online Safety Act threatens free speech by giving regulators power to suppress legal content. Vague definitions mean political opinions and independent reporting risk being silenced. This law goes too far—we need proportionate, rights-based legislation.

Additional details

We want the government to repeal the Online Safety Act in its current form and replace it with clear, targeted legislation that protects children and tackles genuine online abuse—without infringing on free expression. Any future law must define key terms, safeguard legal speech, and avoid empowering unaccountable censorship through platforms or regulators.
