> The same can be said of every single website hosted in China, but they aren't (yet) banning all Chinese websites or all content hosted in any other countries. Why not?

I'm not very comforted by the idea that our government won't censor content from other countries as long as we aren't looking at it. If the content is legal, it should be allowed.

I agree completely but there's so many negatives in your sentence it took me a while to parse. "I am concerned about any censorship, regardless of how popular the content is"
