HyperNormalisation [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperNormalisation] is a 2016 BBC documentary by British filmmaker Adam Curtis. It argues that following the global economic crises of the 1970s, governments, financiers and technological utopians gave up on trying to shape the complex “real world” and instead established a simpler “fake world” for the benefit of multi-national corporations that is kept stable by neoliberal governments.

The true story of Martin Heemeyer, and the Killdozer.
The true story of Martin Heemeyer, and the Killdozer. - Lemmy.World
Marvin Heemeyer [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Heemeyer], the perpetrator of the 2004 Killdozer rampage in Granby, Colorado, was not an American folk hero. Rather, he was a selfish and greedy small business owner who took advantage of the town’s numerous efforts to appease and assist him in his petty squabbles with the local town’s government. When they finally overruled him, in response to these perceived civic slights, he committed a violent act of terrorism that miraculously resulted in only his own death, by suicide. The mythic narrative ascribed to Heemeyer of a rugged individualist American pushed too far by the system, and who was justified in his violence, is a false one.
Lawmakers Want to Ban VPNs—And They Have No Idea What They're Doing
Lawmakers Want to Ban VPNs—And They Have No Idea What They're Doing - Lemmy.World
Following the same legislative and narrative pattern as the EU for “Chat Control”, similar laws and rhetoric are now cropping up in the US. The narrative is “save the children from porn” but the action is censorship, mass surveillance, and the elimination of privacy on the Internet. > As of this writing, Wisconsin lawmakers are escalating their war on privacy by targeting VPNs in the name of “protecting children” in A.B. 105/S.B. 130. It’s an age verification bill that requires all websites distributing material that could conceivably be deemed “sexual content” to both implement an age verification system and also to block the access of users connected via VPN. The bill seeks to broadly expand the definition of materials that are “harmful to minors” beyond the type of speech that states can prohibit minors from accessing—potentially encompassing things like depictions and discussions of human anatomy, sexuality, and reproduction. > Wisconsin’s bill has already passed the State Assembly and is now moving through the Senate. If it becomes law, Wisconsin could become the first state where using a VPN to access certain content is banned. Michigan lawmakers have proposed similar legislation that did not move through its legislature, but among other things, would force internet providers to actively monitor and block VPN connections. And in the UK, officials are calling VPNs "a loophole that needs closing.
