Because every single time this is what happens. Your argument basically comes down to creating some speedbumps to slow down how long it will take, not whether it will or not create the same predictable outcome.
I'd rather not live in a place like the UK where SWAT teams do over-night raids of peoples houses because they tweeted something mean. The sort of situation I'm sure people said would never happen when the ball got rolling decades ago.
- Avamander 3y agoThat's the government, not the ISP taking a look at the "traffic" though. If some random british ISP decided to censor twitter, who'd care to stay? As long as there's a split between powers and a choice, there's just as little need to restrict that as there is to restrict how for example spam filtering works.
