Profound observation, confirming what we would expect from application of Metcalfe's law. Thanks for posting.

By Metcalfe's law, any and all censorship is bad, because all of it cuts down our connectivity with information, good. bad, disgusting, and/or horrifying, all of it is of value, to fix whatever problems are generating the information showing the nastiness.

We can't fix the problems by censoring, it only makes the source problems worse, it seems to me. By Metcalfe's law, there are no exceptions to that rule. We should teach it in schools I think.
