It is bail; it is in lieu of being in prison where you have none of those abilities anyway.

We can discuss whether the original arrest/prosecution was sensible (it probably wasn't), but the bail conditions aren't unreasonable for whatever version of 'hate speech' she's charged with.

These sound like restrictions that would be handed down to Kevin Mitnick. Not someone who said something on the internet or whatever she did (sorry there's so much in the world I can't keep track of it all)

Dr Rahmeh Aladwan, 31, appeared at the Old Bailey earlier charged with four counts of inviting support for the proscribed group by posting comments online between 23 July and 31 December 2025.

It is alleged she wrote: "I don't condemn Hamas. I don't condemn October 7," and "I condemn the existence of Israel" in a post on 23 July.

Aladwan, from Pilning near Bristol, is also accused of using threatening or abusive insulting words at a protest in London on 21 July, and stirring up racial hatred in written material on 19 November.
