Here are librarians' argument against Internet filtering: Librarians: Close the books on Internet filtering.
The danger is once governments start filtering information, people are at risk of not knowing the type of information they need to be aware of. They get an inaccurate view of who they are and where they fit in the world they live in. They do not get the information they need to make the changes they need to make to adapt and to build a better world. (Think censorship in China. How can you expect the average Chinese to get a good sense of the political and socio-economic situation in China when the information he needs is denied to him or her?)| < Prev | Next > |
