The West sure loves its press freedom™ huh?
Edit: Thanks for the valuable discussion, I didn't plan to donate anything cuz I also have my reservations towards the Grayzone. But you guys really showed me that I should probably do it anyway 😅
Here is the link if you want to donate too.

Gofundme is a private company they are free to do what they feel is right within the confines of the law.
As far as I can tell he has been released and not improsined so why it may be an overstep he's hardly been silenced. And the news organisation seems to still be running freely as well.
I can't find any actual information about the event online so it's hard to form an opinion either way.
"within the confines of the law" of course it is, the law is built to allow them to do as much as they please while limiting us as much as possible from retaliation. It means nothing, and anyone who hails its word as truth is a spineless coward.
Hardly been silenced is when you're detained by police and questioned and threatened for your political views. This is a small company, just because they didn't collapse and die doesn't mean losing a source of income didn't hurt it.
