Poland's Government is Going after the Internet
https://www.purevpn.com/blog/poland-government-is-going-after-the-internet/
The government of Poland seems to be following a strict agenda
and wants to set an uncompromising example for other
democracies in the world. Poland has introduced a new
counterterrorism law that raises security regulations,
limiting the freedom an individual has over the internet. The
bill allows for unreasoned detention and supervision of
foreign citizens. This gives utmost authority to the
country's Internal Security Agency to obstruct websites that
are considered as a threat to the nation. The new regulations
also allow the police to cutoff telecommunications and
internet service in a particular area. Most importantly, the
law now permits intelligence officers complete access to data
of Polish citizens.
