I think it’s more possible you and the pro- movement are catastrophizing the effects of porn than the claim we might be catastrophizing the potential effects of the bill.

We all grew up with access to porn. Whether that be nudie magazines that were somehow always found in the woods, or dial up Internet porn—hell, we all had access to rotten.com. That shit was far more scarring than any porn I ever found.

Whether the abuse of these censorship powers actually turn out to be as bad as we all imagine, or whether it’s the next tiny step toward censorship, or the one after that…the point is that these are all freedoms we shouldn’t be fine giving up. We shouldn’t be taking steps down this road no matter if this is the straw or the next will be the one to break the camel’s back.
