Should the government censor certain things on the Internet?

The question has came up a couple times after China is trying to censor alot of content on the internet. People are mad that if you want to find something, you can, thanks to google search. So the question is, should they censor gore, certain pornographic images, or other profane items off the internet? Tell me why or why not because I've only heard one "Yes" and there was really no argument to it.

The government doesn't need to censor anything, private companies already censor things on their own. Unless you're a /b/tard, you really aren't going to encounter most of this stuff unless you are trying.... If parents want to regulate their kids use of the internet, I believe that is their right, whether or not it is ultimately beneficial.

That said, everyone should play a game. Go to youtube with a clear cache and type one letter in... look at all the results that automatically pop up. Go through the whole alphabet.

See if you can find any patterns.

Then ask yourself.... The children? Think of them?

Oh definitely not, the government doesn't need to censor anything. Platforms do it on their own. So does societal pressure, things like that. Look how jingoistic people get about the propaganda networks they stand behind or against!

Let people build sandcastles, they aren't going to last past the tide anyway.
