You believe in an open and unrestricted online environment where individuals can access, share, and create information without censorship or interference.
The "Internet Freedom" political ideology is a belief system that advocates for the unrestricted access and use of the internet. It is rooted in the principles of freedom of speech, expression, and information, and it champions the idea that the internet should remain a free and open platform for all users, devoid of any form of censorship, surveillance, or any other form of control by governments or corporations.
The history of the Internet Freedom ideology can be traced back to the early days of the internet, when it was primarily used by academics and researchers. During…

Imagine you are creating a new social platform; how would you protect users' freedom while ensuring a safe space?
@9JP6FYH3mos3MO
i would say not people personal information out but anyone should be able to say what they want excluding illegal topics like child pornagraphy
@9JQ8V43Republican3mos3MO
I think whatever people say on the internet isn't always true or out of pocket, and we should protect the users right to freedom of speech and privacy while on the platform.
@9JP9LKSLibertarian3mos3MO
Social platforms are available to everyone, and in that majority lies people who should not have access to such. Preventing any type of racial, sexist, and controversial topics online would allow ideas to be more present physically, making issues and concerns noticed.
@9JP6ZTR3mos3MO
I would just make it a safe space, people who want to post non-safe things do not have to use my platform. It is a free country, I do not have to cater to them.
@9JPMCF73mos3MO
Social media is an amazing thing, but some people misuse it. Things like inappropriate content are unfit for some people, but everyone has access to basically everything.
@9JP6L533mos3MO
Make rules that don't glorify unsafe topics or manipulate people to do unsafe things.
@9JVHPMZIndependent3mos3MO
You are free to ignore topics/discussions that are not "safe". If you do not like it do not engage with it.
@9JP6BD43mos3MO
Not allow their names, address, and any other information such as SS Number and Banking info.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How would it affect your relationships if you were unable to communicate freely with people around the world?
@9JHT4NLLibertarian3mos3MO
I have friends who are not from the USA and it would be upsetting news to know I couldn't talk to them. They are people too.
@9JHRGMT3mos3MO
I think my political beliefs could help associate with other ideas
@9JHRFTZ3mos3MO
It would affect me greatly. I am going to a boarding school very soon, and I want to be able to communicate with my family. Also, my family is the only family in our extended family that lives in America, and most of my friends still live all around the world, as well as my family and I want to be able to communicate with them.
@9JHSLTN3mos3MO
It wouldn't affect me too much since i only talk to people within the U.S.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How do you think your learning and education would be affected if you could only access information approved by your government?
@9JCFQT74mos4MO
I think that regulating what is said on the internet inflicts on freedom of speech. Not only is it unconstitutional, but I believe that creates a one-sided, close-minded society. When the only information offered is that of what the government wants, you are limiting other views and information that could be learned. It is a way to oppress people and hide information, and I do not think it is right.
@9JGSRYY3mos3MO
I think it would make our opinions very one sided and not able to see where other countries opinions are coming from.
@9JGSQ2RIndependent3mos3MO
it would be absolutely devastating, and fundamentally against the ideals that America was founded on
@9JGSPN63mos3MO
I would be manipulated and my right to acces free information would be havely violated
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Have you ever needed a piece of information that was restricted online, and how did you overcome that challenge?
@9JGT5LT3mos3MO
nothing really because i don't need to know anything
@9JGTF473mos3MO
Internet Freedom allows me to look up whatever I need for school. If something is blocked I would get a book or ask my parents about the topic.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
In what ways do you think your social connections would suffer if you couldn't express yourself freely online?
@9HZBGXT4mos4MO
I think that people should be able to speak their mind and websites should add an ignore feature so that if someone is agitating you they don´t get banned for someone crying to the higher-ups.
@9HZBCZW4mos4MO
My social connections wouldn't be ruined because I rarely use the internet to express myself.
@9HZBWLQ4mos4MO
It would leave millions of Americans in a great depression and leave millions of Americans without a voice. Personally I would be just great without it.
@9HZBLXV4mos4MO
a lot of people would get arrested and it would not be fair to Americans because that were a lot of people express themselves
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Imagine your access to international news was cut off; how would that shape your worldview?
@9J2GHH24mos4MO
You would have to go off of what you previously know and then hope it stays true
@9HT5NPLProgressive4mos4MO
I think it would change quite a bit because of the fact that I can no longer just look and see what information is true or not
@9J2GYDM 4mos4MO
I would think that we were being attacked or that the media was trying to cover for a corrupt political figure. I would see it as a breach to the right of press as it would be cutting off the station and would be extremely suspicious of it.
@9J2GMF74mos4MO
It would keep me sheltered from educating myself on the current news around the world.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you think access to the internet is a fundamental human right, similar to access to clean water or education?
@9H3QXRG6mos6MO
I think it is a human right and it shouldn't be restricted, but i do think that for children online usage should be restricted
@9H3QYS96mos6MO
to a degree, all should have access to public internet access but private web-sit should be able to decide for themselves
@9H3QNFX6mos6MO
Internet should be completely unrestricted, yet a privilege to those who can afford it.
@9H3RG456mos6MO
Yes, but there needs to be some restrictions to protect the innocence of children and severe penalties to those who use the internet for fraud or deliberately harm people.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Do you think that internet freedom has the power to reduce inequality, and if so, in what ways?
@9HZBCD24mos4MO
I believe that "Internet Freedom" does reduce inequality within communities. This is because although audience members through the Internet can be wired to only see posts or speeches from people whom they share beliefs with, the Internet gives everyone the same opportunity to express their thoughts and gain a following.
@9HZB9HS4mos4MO
I don't think it does because most people will say things that they won't say in person. (like bullying)
@9HZ9NKT4mos4MO
The Internet can be used to reduce inequality. Many can use it as a platform to advocate for a variety of causes even if people try to censor their cause.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How could the lack of internet anonymity change the way young people establish their identities online?
@9HZ9D3NRepublican4mos4MO
people become arrogant and express more opinions when not needed
@9HZ9G284mos4MO
People should have the option to be known or anonymous while online.
@9HZ9GPT4mos4MO
The lack of internet would reduce the use of bullying and inappropriate behavior. Which could help with identifying thereselves.
@9HZBLDS4mos4MO
Some people may want to fake their information to make it seem like they are a real person but not reveal their identity. I think that you should be able to be completely anonymous on most things online.
