To the people who think that "protecting" the "public" from "objectionable" material is a good idea, I'd like them to consider this:
People are killed and maimed in terrible gory traffic accidents all the time. Protectionism would then dictate that we should close all roadways immediately and declare an automobile surrender program.
Or, crazy people use the postal service to send bombs or threats sometimes. By this logic, we should change the postal service such that it only delivers grocery flyers and official government documents.
Such fun times we live in :/

As corny as it sounds, I do believe all that you wrote is at jeopardy; the idea of security over liberty, and the effects there of, always dictate more, and more constricting regulations/legislations.
We're seemingly living in the days of, 'first they came for people in my town, then my neighbors, then.... xyz trickle down effect.
Dying empires, and the tyrants looting what they can before hand is where I think we maybe at.

Then they came for dangerous speech, then they came for .. It won't stop here. There is no reason good enough to silence free speech.
