Censorship is not a good thing. Granted that it is a poison for freedom of expression but there are times when taking this Poisson becomes necessary to save life. Isn’t chemo therapy too is a Poisson but a cancer patient is subjected to it in order to save his life.

No person in his right mind would approve the trash being exhibited on social media in the name of freedom of expression. Social media is replete with the material, no elder would like to see sitting together with his offspring or other members of his family as most of it is obscene and vulgar.

Not long ago if distributor of any movie thought some scenes of the film being shown in any cinema house as objectionable he would get the word For adults only written on the publicity boards of the film on the walls of the cinema houses which meant that persons below 18 years of age are not supposed to see that film Such was the state of abundant caution observed then. No longer, is the case, however
It is free_ for _all now for all and sundry. This is one side of the picture.

Character assassination is also the order of the day in our so_called social media. One is reminded here of an anecdote which aptly fits in the issue under discussion. A writer once said everybody complains of uncertain bad weather of England but nobody does anything to correct it. Likewise one comes across a lot of hue and cry against the ill effects of unfettered social media on the minds of the youth of this country but nothing is being done to regulate it. After all morals and morality are more sacrosanct than other things. Aren’t they?
