4chan Lawyer: How America Is Pushing Back Against UK & EU Censorship | Preston Byrne

Preston Byrne is a technology and free-speech lawyer who’s been on the front lines of a growing international battle over online speech. We dig into how governments in the UK, EU, and Australia are attempting to project their censorship regimes onto American companies, and why

Preston is representing platforms like 4chan and Kiwi Farms in direct opposition to those efforts.

We explore the UK’s Online Safety Act, the escalating push for age verification and VPN crackdowns, and why these laws pose a direct threat to the First Amendment. We also unpack the GRANITE Act, emerging U.S. political pushback, and what this all means for the future of free speech, privacy, Bitcoin culture, and the open internet.

If you care about sovereignty, free expression, and why Americans are saying “come and take it” to foreign regulators, this episode is for you.
