Petition Ban online services enforcing policies that prohibit or censor lawful content

We believe many online companies are essential to today's modern online communications and advertising.

More details

Legal content is being prohibited and censored, and we want the Government to ban online services enforcing policies that prohibit or censor lawful content.

We are concerned that some companies are so large and hold such a monopoly on online services that companies and individuals are unlikely attempt to challenge their polices.

We believe the UK Government has a responsibility to ensure that policies of online companies is not limiting UK freedom of speech and expression through online censorship of lawful content.
