Or, a bit more cynically, they're paid to believe this kind of 'censorship' is a good idea.

A slight misunderstanding perhaps. By electorate I mean the general public who elect the politicians. As far as I know they don't get paid to have opinions, unlike some politicians in a few cases.
Huh. Well it wasn't a misunderstanding. I just completely missed what you'd written and read my own bias right into your comment.
