Free Speech On The Internet

Prompt: Do you agree or disagree with the statement: “Free speech on the Internet should be protected at all costs”?

I disagree with this statement for many reasons.

One reason is that naughty troublemakers would say bad things on the Internet. They wouldn’t say anything while out in public. Once nobody was watching, though, they would start saying bad things on the Internet.

Another reason is that the Internet would become corrupted. The Internet would be full of bad or inappropriate information, so nobody would use it anymore. Nobody would earn any money from their advertisements. The change would be bad for everyone – nobody would have such a wide and useful information center again.

All in all, I obviously don’t support the statement: “Free speech on the Internet should be protected at all costs” because it would change the world – in a bad way.
