Why is the internet so restrictive? Why is it impossible to find a place where you can express yourself fully?

What happens if there’s a site that lets you say whatever you want with no restrictions? We don’t have to wonder or guess. We know, because there have been such sites, like 8chan. 8chan let anyone say anything they wanted to without restriction. What happened?

So they lost their hosting again, made some changes again, found a new host, and came back with new rules: you can express absolutely anything except child porn or terrorism..

That’s right: child pornographers. Within months, 8chan was absolutely flooded with child porn. And I don’t mean child porn like 17-year-olds posing nude, I mean child porn like graphic photos of 6-month-old babies being raped.

It’s impossible to find a place to express yourself without restriction for reasons that are obvious if you think about it.

That’s right, spree killers. In a single six-month period, it was used to plan and coordinate not one, not two, but three mass murder rampages.

The internet is restrictive because it’s other people’s stuff. You don’t have the right to use other people’s stuff for free. If you do use other people’s stuff, they have the right to tell you what you can and can’t do with it, and to tell you to stop using it if they want to.

What a list actors/ actresses are notorious for being jerks in real life?

Why is the Internet restrictive about what you can say? I wonder…

Who would use a site that lets you express absolutely anything except child porn?

That’s right, terrorists. It started swarming with ISIS recruiters and people planning terrorist attacks.

What would you do if you found out that someone had broken into your home while you were sleeping?

So they lost their hosting, made some changes, found a new host, and came back with new rules: you can express absolutely anything except child porn.
