Good dialog here.
Censorship is never the answer. If we shouldn't see it, our brains will censor it. Try staring at the sun. That's something you're not supposed to look at and observe, with your naked eye at least.
Ever heard of DMT? Our brain has it's ways of dealing with this type of stuff that we "aren't supposed to see".
I guess we aren't supposed to see or have herb either, so we should cut it all down and burn it til it's extinct?
You know how a LOT of these crimes that are recorded get solved? BECAUSE PEOPLE WATCH THE PLAYBACK.
Do you not think a lot of people refrain from doing stupid **** now because they stop and say things to them selves like "Nah.. I really don't want this getting out on the internet, so I'm going to chill"?
Can the site not have a converse, positive effect?
I can almost guarentee you WAY more crazier stuff used to happen in the streets when the internet, cell phones and so many cameras weren't around because people were "uncensored" by the lack of cameras and global judgement.
There are "safe zones" on the web like Niketalk that provide sheltered, moderated enviorments for people that choose not to dwell on sites like WSHH, etc, as there are in real life. We have choices.
Don't be so simple in your mind and think everything is black and white. Gray areas are out here and are necessary, and humans have the brain capacity to deal with them according. We don't need to be censored.
