    It’s so weird to see people don’t understand internet censorship. Internet censorship will never bring good.
    If people want to die let them… It’s their choice. Who the fuck government is to decide what people will use.
    Censorship starts with one or two thing and become great firewall of China. Example : look at UK / wait a bit. Today they will ban a shit (eg. Facebook or whatever) You say I don’t use it. Tomorrow they will ban things you use

      Backwards mindset to say that censorship will never bring good.

      You okay with child porn too? How about all the naughty words that we aren’t supposed to say? Or encouragement of violence toward others? That shouldn’t be censored and removed?

      And honestly, I find it disturbing to say that if people want to kill themselves, they should just do it. Most suicidal people are stuck in a very dark place mentally that they CAN get put of if they get the right amount of help. Suicide isn’t always the correct solution. In most cases it, in fact, isn’t. It can be a desperate stress induced decision in response to a very difficult period in time for someone. Something where they seek relief in the moment, vut later are grateful they either didn’t go through with it or were saved. Have been in that dark pit myself and I’m so happy I didn’t go through with it even though I wanted it all to end for years.

      There indeed are areas where censorship goes overboard and that is something we will have to discuss and adjusted together in society forever as times passes. But censorship isn’t an all bad thing. It is absolutely insane to think that censorship of any kind online is bad. I don’t think you actually agree with your own statement, if you think really deeply about it. Unless of course, you have no morals or care for the safety and wellbeing of others.
