If we read through the Dutch news over the past months we have consistently seen messaging about cyber threats and combatting misinformation. Many papers created by institutions have been hammering down on controlling the internet.

The latest “make sure you have cash at home” is the third one in a couple of months. Dutch department of defense, Dutch central bank and now the national association of banks.

A total crackdown on freedom on the internet because of “cyber threats” is not out of the question. The majority of the Dutch people support a crackdown on misinformation and control of social media now… A simple “attack” would easily put emergency measures in place. The China role model of the great firewall is a wet dream for many…

“More people are preparing for emergency situations, they are getting stuff to their homes.

Especially when something terrible happens close to home, people start to think about taking emergency measures.”

Thus NOS, largest Dutch government media.
