Have you noticed an increase in web censorship within the KSA?

I've noticed. What the story conveniently leaves out is Western censorship. We don't like the Chinese filtering the Tianenmen drama, but when Google filters certain Nazi content in Germany and France we think this is fine, perhaps even good.

Currently many western countries are introducing filters, supposedly "to protect the children from abuse", and apparently most people are OK with this too.

This doesn't work though. Either you're against censorship or your not, but you can't have censorship when it's convenient to you and then condemn others who do the same. (Not to mention that it's rather naive to think that hiding crimes, be it the Tianenmen square or abused children, will actually stop it - the opposite is more likely to be true.)
