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

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

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

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 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?

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.

In an interview Donald Trump said Taylor Swift could be a success in the music industry if she was not so liberal. What do you think? Is Trump correct that Swift is failing as a singer and should listen to his advice about her politics?
