The portal is Washington’s opening move in a direct confrontation with European governments over who gets to decide what their citizens can read.
Washington is building a portal to host content that European governments have banned. The site, set to go live at freedom.gov, would let users in Europe and elsewhere read some material their governments have ordered off the internet: content that fell foul of the EU’sDigital Services Actor Britain’sOnline Safety Act.

Reutersreportedthat three sources familiar with the plan confirmed its existence. One said officials had discussed embedding a function so that traffic appears to originate in the United States, and that user activity on the site will not be tracked.
A portal hosted on US infrastructure, outside the reach of EU regulators, changes the calculus for anyone trying to read what their government has decided they shouldn’t.
The project is headed by Undersecretary for Public Diplomacy Sarah Rogers, who has visited many European countries since taking office in October and met with representatives of suppressed voices. Rogers has suggested thatmajor pushbacks against EU and UK censorship lawsare coming.
