For me, censorship in school is needed. Yes, freedom is something sought by everyone. Be it freedom of speech, freedom to act, or even freedom to live. We can enjoy life to the fullest by having freedom. Even so, while everyone strives for it, it is impossible to fully attain it. While there are countries that can be said to be free, they’re not truly free. The freedom that they have is still regulated. It is just an illusion, but is that wrong? If a place become free, what would happen? Would it become the haven that everyone strives for? The answer to that is no. The world would instead become chaotic. Without authority, people would do whatever they want. While there would be people who would do good with, there are people who would also abuse it. It would be similar to the It is important that school also promotes this kind of thinking, as people are shaped when they are kids. School is a place where kids spend their time the most, so it can be said that school holds the most influence in kids. Many people agree with this, even the students. In Japan, a survey was held in schools, and the result was 51% said that school to regulate the internet, 14% said there needs to be censorship, 27% couldn’t choose, 6% said it’s better if there is no censorship, and only 2% said there shouldn’t be any censorship. This shows that even kids know that we the internet have to be regulated, as there are inappropriate for schools. Many people feel that sheltering kids from information would be more dangerous, as they would get shocked when they see it, as they weren’t prepared for it.  I think that’s dumb. Information that would affect a person’s psyche should be regulated. Yes, they should know about it, but the timing of them finding out about it is important.  Imagine a kid finding out about sex for the first time when they’re just starting puberty. Their sex drive is already unstable. Imagine what finding porn for the first time would do them. If they find out sooner or later, it would be much better, but without internet control, we can’t control when a kid finds out about them. Also, there are also concerns that blocking censorship would sometimes block something important that’s unrelated to them. An example of this would be Bikini Atoll, a place that was used for nuclear. Since it has the words bikini, it became banned in schools’ internet. However, this matter can be easily solved by using a VPN. VPN is something that needs payment, so I think students wouldn’t easily be able to use it. Teachers, however could, and since only teachers need to be able to get access to the site, this alternative should be fine.

All in all, I stand by my stance in the need for censorship in the school internet. It allows school and parents to shape their kids to be good. It also makes sure that kids don’t “grow up” to quickly.
