Original Note:
The British Government did not seek to censor Russell Brand. The Chair of the Culture, Media & Sport Committee (which is Parliament) asked Rumble if it would allow monetisation of Brand’s content, not to censor him. Furthermore, the Online Safety Bill is not currently law. https://amp.theguardian.com/culture/2023/sep/21/video-platform-rumble-rejects-mps-call-to-demonetise-russell-brand https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture,_Media_and_Sport_Committee https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3137
