thank you. overreactions over things like this REALLY increase people's "I care about this" fatigue more than people realize.

those who do the overreacting never seem to look into things and immediately jump to incorrect conclusions, and observers eventually get an understanding that these issues are crackpot issues and not real, or not real enough to care about.

it erodes the awareness of the issue that the overreacting person hopes (consciously or not) to increase.

it really is a shame that most "civic-level" advocates are so poor at their advocacy; paid lobbyists are quite effective, indeed.

Thank you for thinking opt out censorship in the so called 'free world' is a good thing.

It's a shame so many western people rally around their censorship, their restrictions, and act all surprised that their sites get blocked in the east.
