Indymedia UK Guilty of Censorship

woe | 07.04.2005 01:53

Indymedia UK are under increasing pressure to explain their censorship issues, as more and more independent web sites pick up on the fact things are not as they seem over at IMUK.

Global web sites and news networks are beginning to ask questions about this "independent" network. Just who is responsible for the censorship? Why are they determined to hide the truth and suppress the voice of the individual?

Issues raised by several sites this week have lead IMUK to change direction and actually delete visitor submissions. What is Indymedia afraid of? Who or what are they protecting?

Getting answers from IMUK isn’t easy, nobody seems willing to accept responsibility for the actions and censorship taken, however claims made my IMUK administration that “IP banning” is not possible by the group have been proven false. What reason does Indymedia have for telling blatant lies to visitors? What can be done about it?

Hopefully our research can shed some light on the issues raised above.
