Propaganda has been used by Religion, Politics and Businesses to affect what you believe. Propaganda has affected the way we see and understand the world  and the human beings we share it with. It has the power to start wars, make you buy a brand of chocolate or hate people you do not even know. It creates patriotism, racism and xenophobia. Propaganda is a powerful weapon against truth especially in a world where so many people who use social media, Twitter, You Tube are deceived by Fake News.

The internet has completely transformed our world and now dominates nearly every aspect of our lives.

There are new pathways of communication and a sea change in how we interact with each other. It's revolutionised access to news and entertainment while enabling businesses to expand globally at an incredible rate.

The downsides, however, include hacking of private information, cyber-bullying and the risk of children and vulnerable people accessing inappropriate material. With such a relatively new technological innovation, and one built on freedom of expression and experimentation, can you construct a model for regulation?

Aside from the extreme online censorship carried out by regimes in nations like China and Saudi Arabia, US lawyer and academic Lawrence Lessig, has drawn up the four primary modes of regulating internet content. Click on the labels to find out more.

There are a variety of ways a state can choose to have influence over the use of the internet. These often depend on existing laws and freedoms and the level of authoritarian control over people's lives.

In the United States the US Constitution comes in to play. Laws designed to control the internet are often blocked as they clash with the First Amendment guaranteeing freedom of expression.

At a different end of the scale North Korea has opted for a high level of state control over the internet. Authorities there have denied most people any access at all to the internet.

In the UK self regulation has, up to now, been the main tool for control. This places a reliance on voluntary actions by internet servce providers (ISPs) to monitor content and take down anything illegal whenever they see it. In addition laws for libel, contempt of court and offensive material, which apply to other areas like print and broadcast, also cover the online space.

In November 2015, the government introduced legislation to overhaul Britain's state surveillance: The Investigatory Powers Bill. The bill is currently making its way through parliament, with revisions taking place, in the process of becoming law.

UK communication firms will have to keep records for up to 12 months of websites, services and data sources you have visited.

Subject to safeguards the police can obtain internet connection records such as your browsing history (main domains not specifics).

Police will have the power to hack computers and smart phones to access information in circumstances where there is a threat to life.

For police and security services to intercept the content of people's communication will require ministerial and judicial approval.

The internet has had a transformational impact on interpersonal communication, dismantling the barriers of race, culture and ideologies and opening up forums for free speech, freedom of expression and the exchange of ideas, creative thinking and pathways to the answers we seek . Well, that is what we hoped, but, as with everything we human beings create there always seems to be a down side. The search for truth, the promotion of ideas, the enquiring mind in search of knowledge of our world, our place within it, the universe and all it's mysteries; awareness and the excitement of discovery; our inquisitive nature taking us on journeys beyond the narrow boundaries of formal education giving us independence, a voice  and the means to articulate ideas, express our thoughts, share with others without fear of persecution, imprisonment even death. "We are such stuff / As dreams are made of." William Shakespeare. Welcome to the war on ideas, the war on truth, the war of censorship, government control, propaganda and media bias. The article below makes interesting reading.

How Countries Are Regulating Internet Content

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
It concludes that there is no one universal model for Internet content regulation. Ultimately, each country's regulation of the Internet is driven not by technology or law but by the culture--in the broadest sense of the word--of the society.
