Stifling dissent
February 20, 2020
This letter refers to the editorial ‘Secret regulation’ (February 15, 2020). I don't understand why anyone would be surprised by the PTI government's attempts to stifle social media.
It's always been obvious that the party's leader is an autocrat. The only surprising thing is that he waited so long to do it.
