I definitely have a problem with UK spying - and I didn't forget about it. I was responding to the parents idea that local government censorship is much more serious than the extreme surveillance we've recently been made aware of. I'm more worried about the surveillance than the censorship. Obviously with the censorship we have the problem you've mentioned ("who knows what else they will start censoring") but I think that's something citizens actually have a chance fighting against. The internet isn't the only way of distributing information. If the government wants to censor something it's going to be very, very hard. As we've seen with the surveillance there is little we can do - the governments aren't listening to their citizens and doing something as extreme as stopping using the internet isn't enough to stop yourself being surveilled.
