If they were truly meant to be in the EU they would just keep running new referendum until their people choose the "right" answer.

Archive now, make public after X amount of time. So, maybe both publisher and archiver are happy (or less sad).

This answer is the most important one.

The future of state LLMs is not censoring subjects - it's slowly but surely persuading people using your LLM that your version of events - or your spin on that event - is the truth.

I've invented a replacement for the PDF format.

It's called Locked Markdown. `*.lmd`.

It provides 98% of the functionality most people use PDFs for, without all the extra bullshit.

The Spec:

- The most popular Markdown Spec (git flavour?)

- At the top of the page place a hash sum of the markdown below a marker on the page.

LMD Reader:

- Prevents editing the markdown.

- Warns user if the hash sum is not valid.

Example:

```lmd

sha256 77ec0f678315f8a207c3501137e1dfc9642b79a9c93e21807df7b5242846c05c

-------------------------------

# Header 1

Paragraph of text about how bloated the PDF format is.

```

Zip .lmd together with images/videos if required.
