    I read Elisavet's post on an article regarding the censorship of certain internet sites by the Chinese government. I agree with the concept of internet censorship limiting human rights and freedom of expression. Not only are the people limited in terms of what information they are exposed to and have knowledge about, but are unable to express themselves. The internet is supposed to be a network with no central control, so preventing access to certain web pages or specific information, creates unnecessary control implemented and given to government officials. If the same information is available upon request in other countries, it should be allowed to be seen to people in China as well.
