It may be either self imposed or externally imposed bythe government or its agencies. Since, everyone is accessible to the internet in this era, use ofsocial media sites has been increased at a tremendous rate. Individuals share their views publiclyvia these sites (Kahlon and et.al., 2018). To connect with more number of people globally peopleare using these sites which is in the favour to ameliorate the relationship with other nations. Butsometimes, people share sensitive information that can provoke the other individuals and spreadthe ill-feelings. Further, it has been stated by various researchers that certain books, news, videosand films are also prohibited from the reach of people due to being politically unstable that canultimately create political unrest in the country. In order to defend the communities from such a devastation, censorship is introduced bythe government of many nations, like, China, etc. So, we can say that it is favourable to imposecensorship on the web to some extent. Since, the government has the authority to make thepolicies and laws which people have to follow, the web should be subjected to governmentcensorship. Along with the head of the communities the government have to decide upon theinformation to be censored. If the information is of a sensitive nature that may provoke ill-feelings in the society or demoralise the people, it must have to be censored. For this, thegovernment have to track the web activities done by the individuals on regular basis. This willhelp to stop the unusual tasks performed by them. Though this will restrict their freedom, but atthe same time it is mandatory for the welfare of the community. Restricting this freedombecomes important to develop a healthy living environment in the country. It becomes animportant activity to initiate stability and prevent any political unrest environment in the country.The activity also become important for the commercial and governmental agencies as well.
