Hayek on censorship and the end of truth

I have read Serfdom, but I'd forgotten this part. It was many years
ago, and I could not then have imagined that what he described could
occur in 'a free country' like mine. It's remarkably prescient and
accurate for something written eighty years ago, but I suppose the
principles go back much further.

Stalin).
