refutation and concession

refutation and concession

1. What is my thesis?
Iran government should stop censoring the internet.

2. What is the opposite position?
internet censorship can prevent harmful information

3. What arguments can I anticipate?

internet censorship mainly focuses on preventing dangerous, harmful things,

not for political purposes.

4. How will I counter those arguments?

Of course, internet censorship is for making people isolated or seperated from dangerous things. However at least In Iran, people tend to be isolated from the world especially by politically focused censorship online.

 People can argue that internet censorship can block the harmful information, illegal sites like gamble sites, drugs sites, or porn. However, it often focuses on political purposes rather than those at least in Iran. According to "News Week" in Joongang magazine, As the Twitter is used for demonstrations that protest the government by people. Iran government regulated and blocked it for a while. It means that the Internet censorship in the case of Iran censors not the harmful information, but innocent people's thoughts regarded as a negative in the perspective of nation, and SNS.
