Can the internet be censored and controlled? 2. Should what someone says on the internet be used to incriminate him?</p> <p>The internet is a different and tough game to play, and I think everyone agress that the only way to control what goes on the internet or what gets viewed on it is to block the whole damn thing.</p> <p>As for the second part, I think yeah, if you say something online, you should be held accountable in the court of law for it. Free speech <u>is a right that must be guaranteed for everyone and everywhere,</u> but there isn't such a thing as Completely Free Speech, and there shouldn't be. People can't just go online spreading their destructive ideas without being held accountable for it. People&nbsp;must be welcomed to criticize and offer constructive solutions to the problems, but they shouldn't be allowed to present ideas that say that the only answer is the annihilation of the other.</p> <p>Thank god for the internet :)</p> <p>Regardless of the two cases covered in the articles you pointed to,&nbsp;I think there are two questions over here: 1.
