Why is censorship resistance touted as a good thing without addressing the shortcomings?
I understand the govt argument, but they never address fake news, child abuse videos, and copyright violations? Is this because they need to obfuscate this to be successful? It will eventually surface as an issue, so why not get out in front of this?
Communities (in the broadest online-global sense) can curate and filter content to the point that such content practically doesn't exist within a particular online community... but it does still exist and can be accessed, if you venture outside those filters and curation boundaries.
Clearly, that raises a lot of important and complicated questions related to community values, ethics/morality, human vices and virtues, as well to local/state/global laws, but we're facing those questions in any case.
