It’s a stark contrast to see the nations that censor the internet to those few that allow it to flow freely. At one extreme there is North Korea who’s downfall will likely come if communication flows freely. It’s scary to see the repression that is capable from from such extreme censorship. Then there is America. There is no way any dictator will rule America as long as the channel of communication remains free through the internet.
