    None of those analogies really work as there are certain protections which could be required by law by ISPs, for example. In some countries porn is blocked. In others, drugs. If you allow drugs to be dealt in a school as the principal, you are going down.

    Comparing it to guns (which have few intended consequences)… Yeah nah mate.

      No analogy is ever going to be perfect when you try to look into the details too much… that’s why it’s an analogy.

        Right, but that one was pretty poor.
