Perhaps not a blowback, but NOS has been good to show both sides of the argument pretty well. Every article so far has shown a balanced, with critical notes added. It's more than I expected from them. It's just one outlet though - I have no clue about the other outlets in NL.

Of course not. Child Pr0N today, "hate speech" tomorrow.
For media, hate speech is anything that deviates from the propaganda of the day.
I'm amazed at how many people don't see the pattern, especially in our post 9/11 world. This stuff never stays contained to it's original purpose - it ALWAYS expands.
The only way to control it is not let it get established in the first place :p

No blowback here in US media either, but our mainstream sources have been buddying up to all of our little authoritarians especially as it pertains to COVID, so running a story about your rights being infringed upon wouldn't jive with the rest of their recent messaging.
