Vote Results (Week 2)

Do you think online censorship can benefit national security?

The second week’s poll results states that 72% of people have agreed that online censorship benefits the national security, whereas, 14% of people have disagreed that online censorship benefits the national security and another 14% of people aren’t sure if online censorship benefits the national security or not.

From the analysis we can conclude that online censorship does benefits the national security.

How?

Exposures of immorality elements and political or racial issues can evoke chaos in the country. Such elements or issue reaches the mass faster by internet compared to other media. To overcome such dilemma, online censorship helps to either ban or reduce people from viewing such elements. For instance, the newer generation is so involved in internet activities like games, music and video portals where they can easily be influenced by the vulgar or violent elements in it and can you imagine the consequence of it when people practice it around?

Another example is the recent threat to the nation which is dead of an Indian guy in the police custody. It has become a racial riot because the family claims as he has been killed in police custody and the Indians claim it as bias behaviour of police towards the Indians. This is because of the distribution of the images and videos through Youtube and social networking site like Facebook. Incites people to join networking groups to discuss information about this case which maybe false news, they seem to interpret among themselves and at the end it rises up people to be against the police and the government.

Now can you get a clear picture of how tricky it becomes when online censorship was not enforced at this time? Online censorship is not used when it is needed, that is why some people assume that it doesn't benefits national security.

To stop this kind of issues to happen, reinforcement of the online censorship law has to be made so that the misuse of the internet could be finally stopped or not the history will repeat itself.

To those who were not sure if online censorship benefits national security, we hope the information that we gave helped you to get a better picture how online censorship benefits the national security.
