so then as with most others overseas your internet is also censored and you have to work around the blocks if you wish to have freedom of choice on which sites you can visit like i said. judging by the tone of your post though it would appear you do not mind being a subject instead of a citizen =(
no wonder you italian fellows throw people in jail for not predicting earthquakes.

If you consider that censorship then every government in the world does at least the same, including the U.S. Against copyright infringement more than most so I guess you are subject too.
A bit more prospective or knowledge about the internet and it would have been harder to change the neutrality but it can be said the same about the Trump election and many other things, so...
The earthquake news is not true but I know that you just read a title and repeated it here. Like most things, is hardly so black and white to be able to summarize it with a sentence.
ROME — Seven prominent Italian earthquake experts were convicted of manslaughter on Monday and sentenced to six years in prison for failing to give adequate warning to the residents of a seismically active area in the months preceding an earthquake that killed more than 300 people.
Speaking in a hushed courtroom in L’Aquila, the city whose historic center was gutted by the April 2009 earthquake, the judge, Marco Billi, read a long list of names of those who had died or been injured in the disaster before he handed down the sentences to six scientists and a former government official. The defendants, who said they would appeal the decision, will also have to pay court costs and damages of $10.2 million.
The seven, most of them seismologists and geologists, were members of the National Commission for the Forecast and Prevention of Major Risks, which met shortly before the quake struck — after weeks of frequent small tremors — but did not issue a safety warning.
The verdicts jolted the international scientific community, which feared they might open the way to an onslaught of legal actions against scientists who evaluate the risks of natural hazards. “This is the death of public service on the part of professors and professionals,” said Luciano Maiani, the current president of the risks commission, according to the news agency Ansa. The legal and media pressure prompted by the trial have made it impossible to carry out professional consultancies for the state, he said, adding, “This doesn’t happen anywhere else in the world.”
Seven Italian scientists who faced jail for failing to predict a deadly 2009 earthquake were cleared Monday of manslaughter convictions that had sparked international outrage
The seven men were sentenced to six years in jail in October 2012 after a court in the medieval town of L'Aquila found them guilty of causing multiple deaths by having negligently downplayed the risk of the town being hit by a major earthquake just days before the killer tremor struck in April 2009.
But after a month-long appeal trial in the mountain town east of Rome, that verdict was overturned by a panel of three judges which concluded that six of the seven had committed no crime.

and try to upload a movie on youtube and see how many seconds will last
The U.S. possesses protection of freedom of speech and expression against federal, state, and local government censorship; a right protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. These protections extend to the Internet

On the subject of Youtube, there is censorship of certain things, like pro-conservative videos, but that is entirely the actions of Google, a liberal-leaning corporation who have decided they don't approve of free speech. But that's a private company, not the government. It's entirely wrong, what they are doing, but it isn't government censorship.
