I hope that was a joke. You accuse people of ‘abusing’ their freedoms, but how do you justify calling this abuse? Just because someone has a different opinion to yours doesn’t make them wrong and is certainly no justification for censorship. And who is to do the censoring? You? Wanting someone to censor opinions that you don’t like is simultaneously feeble and arrogant. What the Turkish government did was to declare that certain opinions were simply not allowed. That’s fascist behaviour. And I know there are weak people who like the apparent protection of such regimes, but they generally change their minds when they find some cherished opinion of their own being suddenly outlawed.

You will find plenty of opinions on the Net that don’t agree with yours. That’s the nature of freedom. And it’s a freedom to be protected, not given away by feeble people who can’t abide others thinking differently.

It’s worth pointing out that some censorship does occur. There are laws preventing hate speech – material likely to cause people to commit hate crimes (predominantly, violent crimes). There are legal tests and parameters to define these. ISPs and web hosts will take down sites where the content can be shown to be unlawful or libellous. So there are controls. The fact that Youtube did not remove the ‘offensive’ material is an indication that it did not fall into these categories. You might not like it, but so what? The Internet is not run for your personal benefit.
