Incumbent tactics: copyright as news suppression, BBC editorial choices…

Sometimes a Bluesky feed (and yes, I am as at risk of falling into the scrolletariat as anyone else) offers up a bleak perspective on the way we live now, and what we are invited to see, and NOT to see.

I had never thought of the way the police might play music not just to sleep-deprive or intimidate (as per blasting out the Clash’s cover of “I fought the law” at Climate Camp 2008) but also to suppress video evidence. I am naive. Meanwhile, well, the latter post speaks for itself, doesn’t it?
