I would argue that if speech is regulated which is not directly related to the articulable harm of another, then that constitutes censorship. CP is illegal and immoral because it is an artifact of chi ld sexual abuse... Plotting a terror activity should be regulated because the intent and end is to cause harm to innocent bystanders... Piracy can be morally regulated because it harms the intellectual property interests of the legitimate owner.
The problem with regulating "extreme things that the majority of the world agree is illegal" is the changing and arbitrary definition of what is "extreme", 40 years ago anal porn was extreme, should that have been regulated? What if the majority of the world doesn't want me to develop jesusiscuming.com or whatever because it is "extreme"? May I then be censored?
