The problem is there are no good tools to filter internet content. They are a) imperfect and b) filter out lots of perfectly good content or breaking parts of the web. Using twitter with the Google safe search dns for example is a pain, certain image hosting domains are blocked all together.

It seems there is really no strong disincentive for sites to censor themselves or be amenable to censoring.

Surprisingly though, reddit seems to actually be leading the way with stricter nsfw tagging and requiring login to enable. Maybe a trend others will follow.
