Anti Censorship
Against Media Censorship * On television, music, and most websites, they inform the user about the contents of their website, song, or show; but others (like YouTube) put on age restrictions on them. * I’m sure most of you have had to go through these at some point in your life and have gotten upset when you can’t hear the whole song or watch the whole movie. * I’d like to explain to you all how Media Censorship is in direct violation of the First Amendment and how it can make it harder for kids to learn about certain aspects of life.

If certain things are hidden from people, then that gives people a curiosity in the subject and may cause people the use of illegal actions to obtain it.
