The printing press was very much an invention /not/ at the disposal of the citizens. It analogizes poorly to the Internet.
How many people are involved in ISPs, data centers, and other internet backbones? Most people are consumers rather than producers or "printing press" operators.
You just broadcast your voice to millions of people, became instantly archived in google and several other sites, all at zero direct cost to yourself, other than the monthly access fee.
There is an obvious distinction.
Finally I'd ask you to observe the entirety of social media's existence.

Actually it's perfect. How long did it take rulers to go from fighting the printing press to using it for propaganda and their own ambitions? The internet has just speed run that same course.

Probably the moment something negative was published about them.

And citizen journalism has never been more powerful.
There will be no invention of man that will eliminate jealousy, avarice or hatred. Objectively I'd rather be alive today than at any point in our recorded history.

My country is always like this. I think it's a problem unique to East Asian countries—following orders obediently. I read the link you shared, and it seems similar.
That's interesting. I didn't know any other country in East Asia that showed this level of restrictive policy that sets up a cascade of problematic tooling and technologies. Japanese Internet was pretty bad in the 2010s, but this was all self-inflicted done by the private sector. The government had very little do with it. And even then, ActiveX controls were very rare. My main pain point with online banking was ugly…
It makes sense in a way.
Would you rather take your chances as one in one million customers getting his "hunter2" password brute-forced by a dedicated attack or as one of the one million customers totally pwned by a buffer overflow/code injection from the password field?

Ah there's the "You are foreigner you will never understand" line! You went from Democratic Party is akshually conservative to "everybody censors in korea, you dont get us" but if both sides censor, then my point stands: the Democratic Party does not get laundered as harmless just because it uses words that sound nice and formal. I'm not a christian and it really doesn't change the previous actions to ban anti-North…
Hmm, you're too fixated on specific words. To be honest, I think you're only seeing fragments of South Korea. It's not because you're a foreigner — the problem is simply that what you see from outside is only a fragment of the issue. Look back at your original post. And for the record, I was mostly making dark jokes. This time, purely for your sake, I'll speak without any dark humor — just the facts: Banning leaflets…
> No one hates South Korea more than I do.
It would appear that's a pretty common sentiment among the South Korean youth(which probably means under 60), actually.
Not even North Koreans want to flee to South Korea. Most go to China and stay there as minority residents.
The regime had to go to some seedy district in China to pick up a "defector" with totally real stories they could parade.

A web search will give you a faster and better answer than you will get by asking here.
Apparently not, since most of the results I get (that are in English) are about a lawsuit they lost for violating the AGPL.

It was a horrible case indeed, but weren't they using Telegram.

Starmer is about as left headed as a straight line railway across Australia. Corbyn was left (maybe). cf. https://www.politicalcompass.org/uk2024 Even if you consider that page biased in whatever way - it's still useful for comparisons on the same scale. E.g. https://www.politicalcompass.org/norway2025
> Corbyn was left (maybe).
Corbyn was (is?) a Castro-sympathizing communist. If you classify him as "left (maybe)", then I don't even want to ask what is "left" to you.

The vast majority of people never broadcast to the public like we're doing right now.
