Why do I keep coming back here

I’m anti-censorship, but I’m also of the opinion that I should be able to choose what I want to look at. Thus, while I disagree with Xylon’s notion that some information should be kept from some people some of the time (sounds like PRC vs. Google), I agree that CP/pr0n in general/shock sites/etc. should be required to warn prospective viewers that they might not like what’s coming to them.

In summary: I think information, including information about what information is out there, should be free and readily available.

censorship is wrong and unnatural because it causes the victims to lose morals

if your parents block all violence and porn from your computer, you will naturally try and find a way around it (mainly because you find that it is blocked). So you will do something that goes against what they said

if they hadn’t implemented the censorship, you might not even try to look for violence / porn. If you did, you wouldn’t have to break the rules to get it.

Since your parents forced you to break the rules, you have become more “evil”. This would not have happened had the initial censorship not have been there.

Wait- I don’t think I’m following you. You’re saying porn is evil?

Whoever cannot differentiate fake from real needs to GET THE **** out of the internet.

It’s just pixels on a screen, after all. If someone can’t recognize that, it’s his/her own fault.

you made it sound like it’s evil.

“if no censorship, they wouldn’t do X” implies X is evil

Good luck implementing any sort of ban for internet content.

With the advent of strong encryption and plausible deniability….

The public internet (and America) was founded on the idea of free, uncensored ideas. Idiots who censor on the internet (VFX, etc.) are destroying the purpose of HAVING an internet.

Whats wrong with censorship? Why should people have to see bad things? It seems to me people should be protected as much as possible! Kids could see thing on the internet that could hurt them! People should be forced to do something like they do here where they say they are not offended easily and they are old enough to see sites. For example

1 to see a site where people get drunk you have to be 16

2. to see a porn site you have to be 18

3. to see a violent movie online you have to be 14.

Then people would be bumigned an identity based on their birthday so no one can cheat!
