I read Kindly Inquisitors by Jonathan Rauch[0] earlier this year which makes a fantastic argument against the limitation of free speech. It was written over twenty years ago. While I wholeheartedly agree with Rauch's position, I can't help but wonder what has changed in the last two decades. The points he made then seem just as relevant today, and the examples he provided of speech being censored do not seem at all old-fashioned. Is this sort of behavior strictly limited to university campuses, or does it eventually seep into the "real world" as well? Is freedom of speech today significantly more hindered than it was twenty years ago? [0] I read the book after seeing a recommendation on Hacker News. I enjoyed it a great deal and would strongly recommend it also. http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/K/bo18140749.html http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/K/bo1814074...
