Censorship of the web

The internet should not be censored. The internet should be a place where anyone can publish anything they want for the public to see. The internet also lets us communicate massive amounts of information faster than anything else. We wouldn’t hear about events half way across the world for months rather than minutes. Another reason censoring the internet would not be a good idea is who would decide. Who would choose what goes on the internet and what doesn’t. If they did manage to censor the internet and shut down websites, people would always find a way around it or make a new site. This would create too much of a problem for the public and the media.
