That's right.

We don't.

For quite some time now actually.

Wasn't the guardian itself that took down the letter from Osama Bin Laden to the American people due to the risk the general populace may actually understand it?

lol forgot about that letter. The UK actually took it down? US agencies are still hosting it publicly

No, this isn't the correct letter? Right?

The guardian was the custodian for 21 years in open public web.

But one day, people started reading it, and that day was a few months back. And they had what's called a "single phone call" failure and had to take it down.

Much like Julian Assange really.

Then why does u.s host it? Just to virtue signal freedom of speech?

This is a very good question.

It's also true that the US does have at least in part, a first amendment, whereas there is no such thing anywhere else in the world. So maybe the host is putting their foot down?
