It’s damaging because the Internet evolved in the conditions of governments not doing their job at catching criminals, but at the same time taking upon themselves rights and responsibilities they shouldn’t have. The former made it impractical to use more cozy and personal spaces, like personal webpages with guestbooks and such, and the latter put upon webmasters the responsibilities of law enforcement which law enforcement should fulfill itself. It’s as if home owners were responsible for a crime happening on their property, and the police wouldn’t help when called, it would instead arrest them for not preventing it.
Law enforcement doesn’t need more rights, it had all it needed 20 years ago, even 30 years ago. It needs to fulfill its responsibilities.
Those jerks both want to avoid actually working and to censor what you can say. Fuck them.
