Essay based on free speech on the Internet: The issue is whether various kinds of speech and content on the Internet should be restricted, such as hate speech, pornography, lewd material, sex chat rooms, and similar items. Others feel that only actual specific threats of violence and obscene material should be prohibited, and in some cases not even these categories.
