It doesn't work like that. I've been made aware thanks to this post, and tomorrow I'll be placing CO2 sensors in every meeting room in the company I work at, and mandating an open-windows or air-circulating policy above 800ppm.
You don't need to make everybody aware, you just need to make the right people aware.
As for the State... Mine mandates that nobody can use the laptop's keyboard, they must use an external keyboard so the laptops' screens can be risen to eye level.
We have the external keyboards and the risers, and nobody uses them.
The State usually finds the worst and most wasteful solution available. Only fools trust the State to solve their problems.
Just so everyone here has the full picture: the source linked — Assemblea Nacional Catalana — is not a human rights watchdog, an international observer, or a journalistic outlet. It is the main pro-independence criminal activist organization in Catalonia. Citing them as evidence of Spanish human rights abuses is a bit like citing the murderer's wife as an impartial witness.
For context, Spain is a full constitutional democracy, subject to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights, with a free(ish) press, independent judiciary, and regular elections — none of which Assemblea itself disputes, because it participates in all of them. The events OP is referencing (the 2017 independence referendum aftermath) were reviewed by European courts, and the outcomes were, shall we say, not quite the narrative Assemblea sells on its website.
If there are genuine, documented human rights concerns, I'd welcome impartial sources from the Supreme Court or the ECHR.
What I'd push back on is treating a political lobby's own press releases as neutral reporting. You should do better than that here, OP.
Freedom of speech is binary, there aren't any acceptable degrees of it: either you have it, or you don't.
If there is disinformation, the solution is to counter it with actual information, to give the people better tools to identify it (like X's community notes), and to educate the general population so they will have better critical thinking.
Restricting freedom of speech is never a solution. How long until dissenting opinions are censored because somebody labels them "disinformation"? Who watches the watchmen? etc.
I'd rather live in a society with full freedom of speech and disinformation from State actors than have only 100% accurately vetted news.
I've made thousands of dollars just by following the Pelosi tracker on X. Most of the time a stock soars just on the effect of a congressman buying that stock.
It's hardly about a company having a "right" to stop you from saying anything, it's about what your reaction to life events says about you.
If you get fired and your reaction is to go to your blog and whine about losing email access and not being able to deliver a talk that you had prepared for x time I, as a prospective employer, am going to draw some conclusions about your personality that won't help you get the job I'm offering.
Yet another reason why I don't connect appliances to the internet. My TV is plugged to an Nvidia Shield, and that's the device that gets online, since it was designed for that.
Apple makes it difficult to access because they want to make sure you don't use it often, as they believe the experience of waking up the computer from sleep is better than starting it up.
It's a conscious decision based not on design, but on UX, as with the Magic Mouse USB port.
You don't need to make everybody aware, you just need to make the right people aware.
