Who could possibly be harmed by pornography or, even more ridiculous, copyright infringement? Feels like a lame excuse.
Internet censorship in my country (Russia) started the same way — "we're protecting children from suicide and drugs", but for some reason you couldn't opt out of the "protection" as an adult. To no one's surprise, over time, more and more things to non-consensually "protect" people from were added. In the end, unless you stick exclusively with local services, Russian-language content, and government-owned media, the internet is utterly broken without a VPN, packet fragmenter or other anti-censorship solution. Popular VPN protocols are also starting getting blocked, btw. All for your own safety, of course!
