UK MP Who Pressured Rumble To Demonetize Russell Brand Received Donation In Kind From Google

If you’re tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim The Net. Tech giant Google provided a donation in kind worth £3,302 (approximately $4,060) to the UK Member of Parliament (MP) that recently sent letters to Rumble, TikTok, Facebook, and X that pressured them to demonetize comedian and commentator Russell Brand after anonymous sexual assault allegations were made against him. The MP, Dame Caroline Dinenage, who chairs the Culture, Media and Sport Committee in the UK Parliament, received two tickets with hospitality and accommodation as guests of YouTube at the Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Arts 2023 on June 26, 2023. This donation in kind from Google was valued at £3,302. Dinenage is one of the architects of the Online Safety Bill, a sweeping surveillance and censorship law that was recently passed. She also coordinated Covid “misinformation” fighting efforts in the UK. Not only did her letter to the tech platforms push them to strip Brand of monetization, but it also questioned what the platforms were doing to prevent other creators from engaging in “inappropriate” behavior, regardless of whether those creators have been charged or convicted of a crime. “We would also like to know what Rumble is doing to ensure that creators are not able to use the platform to undermine the welfare of victims of inappropriate and potentially illegal behaviour,” Dinenage said in the letter to Rumble.
