Abi W on 19 Mar 12Some countries have a lot more internet filtering than we do. The United States lets people post what they want and say what they want online. Even if later on in life it might come back to them badly, it's still allowed. Other countries are a lot more strict. In some countries, if you type and publish a blog online that might be offensive, you'll get arrested. Second there are some places like Burma that haven't had internet since 2007. These are examples of how different other countries are from us and how global awareness varies in many places.
