Correct me if I am wrong but this type of organised censorship for something that has not been proven to be detrimental to society is unprecedented. I wonder why they haven't placed a ban on Alcohol or even pulled the plug on Facebook Live because those have proven to be dangerous as well.
I wish everyone will just reveal their honest intentions and allow the public to make up their own minds on what they want to engage in.
