    This is an argument that my partner and I are constantly having, whether or not a parent should apply heavy influence to their child's moral and religious beliefs. I have always felt that a child should be able to be exposed to as many religions as possible, but he feels as though his beliefs should be pressed upon our child. It's a good debate.

The only countries that would be held to the certain censorships are ones that request it per religious, historical, or cultural reasons. So, freedom of speech on Twitter will be opened up in the US rather than restricted by the international growth.
