I'm undecided about this one. On the one hand I see what Scunner is saying and cannot disagree. The whole issue of censureship of the internet and the worlds governments inability/unwillingness to moderate is a tricky one. We would all like to see the offensive material banned or at least monitored but how and who decides what is and what isn't acceptable? Do you entrust Hugh Heffner or Mary Whitehouse?
If someone has a political view and wishes to criticise their government then it is in the interests of democracy that right is protected. The Taliban for example would ban just about everything except their own political ramblings.
Like most things a sensible balance is required and the internet should be policed to ensure both respect and decency but who decides that?
