It seems to me like > deciding to block www.sex.example and "impairing...traffic to > www.sex.example" are pretty similar. I felt like picking up on this: the difference between blocking and impairing is that blocking would be definitive (content is rendered inaccessible to end-node), while impairment would just mean, for instance, downgraded in quality (content is made to run more slow or without encryption, for instance). I do feel there is a point to keeping that distinction. It serves the purpose of highlighting that censorship may take more subtle forms than outright bans on sensitive content. best regards, Amelia
