Filtering the internet, or the intellectual mind?

Internet filtering is one of the topics, discussed in Turkey by the public. One of the reason of this discussion is government’s wrong choice in imposing this idea to the public. Most of the people presume that the government’s attitude is right due to the fact that they think such an action can protect people from explicit content. I, however, consider this issue from an opposite view and I believe that instead of filtering the internet, it is more serious, threatening and vital for the intellectual mind. The minds of common people can tolerate this action because these people are hindered to think, and to react. Yet, people who have intellectual minds will question such an attitude. Therefore, from this, I understand that the government’s attitude is only for people, who are not intellectual thinkers. These people are happy about the fact that someone else makes decisions for them. For me, such an attitude like this is humiliating. I should be making my own decisions and evaluate what is wrong or right.
