in your knowledge, is the internet a lot more restricted today than it was 10 years ago?

ive asked questions like this before, rarely get many answers.....i ask because when i google search today i feel i cant find the same websites and images i used to find ? or cant find many relevant images if im searching google images.......as if the internet has been censored or restricted by the government ?

10 years ago i remember you could find virtually anything you wanted online, on google.......im not sure if its because ive been listening to too many stories on internet censorship.......but i feel todays internet has been cut back......blocked, restricted or censored ?


in anyones wisdom, do you think it has ? or is the internet just the same as it used to be ?

I've surfed the net day and night since 1994 and I sense no obstruction diff from 10 yrs ago. I favored Netscape until I found Mozilla browsers then switched to Chrome when it came out. I've never gotten comfy with IE, way too cumbersome to use.

Yes and no.

It's like saying is it darker at night. It depends on what your scale is. If you set a specific test and you know the answer then obviously it will give you the result you want. And the search engines work differently today and websites disappear or are bought up. I don't expect to get the same results.

Anybody can get and do just about anything on the Internet today. You just need to know how and where to look. But that applies to anything really.
