No mention of UK laws that prescribe 10-15 year jail sentences for "repeated viewing of terrorist content" [1], or the German NetzDG [2] that gives companies 24 hours to delete "obviously illegal" content upon receiving a complaint ("illegal" includes hate speech), or risk a €5 million fine (which in practice means every complaint results in deletion, or a handful of mistakes bankrupt a company), or Facebook and Twitter censoring links to stories even in private messages between users [3].
I can appreciate that censorship is worse in the countries listed, but that is no reason to ignore what is happening in Western countries - I would expect at least a mention.
