The Guardian view on censoring the internet: necessary, but not easy | Editorial | Opinion | The Guardian
'Both governments and private companies have a part to play, even if government action often takes the form of demanding that private companies execute government policies. '
'But the claim that internet companies are wholly neutral conduits is not entirely true; nor should it be. '
'Different countries will have different regulatory regimes, some better, some worse, and private companies will have varying ethical standards. '
'It shows there is no single benevolent world authority to set the rules for the internet. '
'Among the more absurd things ever said about the internet was that the network “interprets censorship as damage, and routes around it”. '

I'll admit that was not nearly as bad as I expected coming from The Guardian. That said, they still are far too willing to support censorship. Only illegal content should be dealt with by anyone who is not actually responsible for the publishing of the content. It doesn't matter if it is the government, an ISP or a company like Cloudflare.
