Internet Censorship is Absurd and Unconstitutional by Michael Landier

Introduction | The Essay | Sources | Criticism | Related Sites

Very well written paper with well reasoned logic and good suggestions. When 
I went in search on information and the Internet for an essay, it was as a 
proponent of censorship. After reading your essay I am presently not sure. 
Your points have been well established and I may even side with you. Thanks 
for the argument

I found your Essay on the Internet censorship very helpful in deciding how to
set up an argument paper on why censorship is a breach of morality
but on the other hand I would not like my child 2 yrs old hearing the f word
on teletubies. But I do believe that a person should have the rights to do the personal censoring.

I notice you only print "criticisms" that agree with your viewpoint.   Frankly, you're full of it. Our constitution does not provide an unlimited right to a free press nor free speech, nor the right to feed other people trash, though you seem bent on driving our society to hell with your foot on the accelerator. Luckily, the body has a way to expel any garbage it might eat, but the mind doesn't. So our society's mind is filling up with the stuff the likes of you feed it. It should be expelled the same way.

A well-structured and convincingly reasoned repudiation of the CDA and promotion of a free-speech Internet. Your arguments for the ways content should & should not be regulated is persuasive. Good Job!

Very well written and researched. I agree with your solutions but there are those who will treat the internet like the evil Iron Horse who's scars of steel have destroyed the solitude of the great American west.

--- David Landier

I really enjoyed your essay. Good use of ETHOS, LOGOS, and PATHOS. It helped me narrow my research greatly. Excellent persuasive writing.

Excellent essay and for once the court had vision as to where this law could have led.

Well done in terms of a infoirmative essay, but needs a little something to truly by persuasive. You follow the idea that simply giving people the information will allow them to make a judgement. This, however, is not true; people simply do not want to think.

I think your esaay is excellent. I totally agree with your point and I'm sure many, many others do too. I'm just glad someone put an essay "out there" so we can greater understand both sides of the argument and it's consequences.

--- Byron Wilson

great essay- brought up logical arguments that changed what I thought, and educated me in areas of this issue that i was not aware of.
