[ian.peter at ianpeter.com]

To which story you can add issues like this - Facebook banning all  
Australian and international news in Australia in reaction to (albeit 
crazy) new national media laws... 
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-02-18/facebook-to-restrict-sharing-or-viewing-news-in-australia/13166208

These restrictions are in place as of this morning....

  Splinternet indeed.....
