Censorship: Should there be free speach online???

After researching censorship I have found out that Censorship is very important on the web as inappropriate materials are found on it everyday that might not be suitable for people of a certain age.Censorship controls the information and ideas circulated within a society on a website. It has been a hallmark of dictatorships throughout history.
Censorship is controlled by the government as some content in books or in films may be censored as they may not be suitable in some countries.

Some countries try to ban the use of free speach online as it may be unsuitable for people to read. But I think free speach should be allowed as it gives you the satisfaction of expressing yourself and allows you to express your feelings on what you may be worried about and what might be bugging you.


I also do agree with the censorship of some websites on the internet as people of all ages access the internet and some of the content may not be suited.

While researching censorship I found a video that highlights the good reasons for censorship on the internet:


So by researching censorship I have found that it has both positive and negative impacts but looking at both sides I do think that overall it is good and it is really needed.
