"censor" is a loaded term. Why not "forbid"? Also, what if the solution to an abusive government is not a technological tool but a plurality of governments, many of which promote (some vision of) human rights? Central power, authority is not inherently evil.

Yes, there are different governments, some of which are good, and some of which are bad.

Which is exactly why tools for fighting censorship are important.

To fight the bad governments.

"just make the government better" isn't a solution. People have been trying to make terrible, abusive governments better for thousands of years.

But until the problem of bad governments is solved, tools to fight those governments are important.

Just like tools that allow people to engage in anonymous and protected speech and political disagreement are important.

And right now there are a lot of really freaking terrible governments.

I'd argue that around ~20 percent of people in the world right now live under a government that I'd describe as "Nazi level bad". (ex, much of the middle east has laws that literally give the death penalty for being gay. That's Nazi level bad... ).

When you have this many people living under terrible governments, tools for these people are extremely important.
