ISPs have lists of problematic keywords and take down pages that include them
Specific search terms are red flagged, if searched you’re blocked from Google for 90 seconds
Over 100,000 Internet police
People paid to post pro-government messages on social networks, blogs and message boards

Freedom to visit any website you want at the fastest browsing speed
