Well, we don't.
But you do.
Our mission - Wikimedia's bias - is that more
information is better
than less information.
If I were to make an account with the user name CumInYourCornflakes or
HitlerMyHero there'd be someone all over the account within minutes,
blocking banning, and deleting.
And "filtering" when applied by a third
party is what censorship is.
No it is NOT. It is not censorship if I choose not to see X, that is my
choice. So long as YOU have the choice to see X if you want to then we
can both live in harmony. The conflict arises when you say that I must
see X, or if I say you must not see X. Where X is some broadly
recognized category of offensive material.
