  Dystopian. The UK gov paper for alternative and social media censorship in the name of protecting “trustworthy” news platforms makes for chilling reading. Lisa Nandy’s Dep for culture, media and sport’s censorial propositions are yet another attempt to protect the establishment from the people. Read it for yourself - “People are increasingly accessing news online, rather than through more regulated spaces like Freeview on their TV sets. This is weakening the ability of trustworthy news providers to reach audiences and shape informed public debate.” The word “trustworthy” here is Orwellian. They mean by it news acceptable to the regime. Mainstream media is not trustworthy in the eyes of the public, for good reason. “Overall trust in UK news has dropped, and only 45% of adults feel confident judging whether a source is truthful. This rise in untrustworthy news and corresponding decline in trust in news pose a risk to the public’s ability to access accurate information.” This is the fault of mainstream media. They have been blatantly biased for decades. The response to the rise in alternative media is for MSM to try and become more truthful, less biased, and honest to the public AND THEMSELVES about their bias. And certainly NOT to censor or throttle alternative media. “[Social media] makes it more difficult for trustworthy news providers to find, maintain and monetise an audience, with repercussions for the commercial viability of public interest journalism.” I.e. regime interest journalism If mainstream media is to be saved it needs to drastically improve its product, and focus on youtube and social media as outlets, it needs to adapt to the media market not try and make the media market adapt to them. How is it that they are so lacking in self-awareness? Ultimately this is a war they can’t win. The question is - how long will it go on. And what damage will be done along the way.

  @jamzefish @BBCNews Ok, I get that you're talking about unencrypted satellite signals, but these can be controlled. Everyone will have to login to iPlayer for BBC content with some programs requiring a paid subscription. Freeview channels should remain viewable without need for a TV licence.

  It's a good thing I am not reliant on terrestrial TV as the signal is as choppy as **** tonight. Freeview over the net is perfect. Been the same since the Bilsdale transmitter caught fire.

  Is anyone else getting problems with their Freeview television channels? It says no signal available could it be sunshine or the heat doing that?

  @JoshCF_ They're a joke now, two years ago the deal was £45 with basic freeview and Sky Q and now it's £63. They've also ended customer support on here and UK based customer calls. The app regularly messes up now, doesn't recognise you've paid and you end up getting charged again 😑

  @Hi_De_Helen Apparently it's going to get worse all down to Sky but how does that include Freeview losing them too 🤔 All I could find out from Google search piece about it in Sun today.

  @aconda_ann I am quite old fashioned as well. I did get a bargain smallish 'internet / smart' TV but no use when freezes or internet cuts off (been happening for years, with no fix). It's on a terrible indoor aerial, so I can't get most Freeview on that one but my fave usual telly: Freeview.
