But that's your ideology. Isn't it? I tend to agree with you, but I understand there are places in the world they do not like this.

Freedom of expression is not a universal value it's just an "I'm American, or an American puppet state" value.

You don't think people in China or India might not want to be able to access the full breadth of human knowledge?

Also, rather condescending to call Europe, Australia, etc., American puppet states.

Australia is an American puppet state. Most of Europe is as well. Recall what happened to European airspace when they thought snowden was in the air?

I think people in China hold very different values to Americans and for the most part they don't mind their government, as shown by its continued existence.

India holds different values again... I'm not particularly familiar with so I won't comment.
