I'd also like to add that I know what was monitored and censored in Singapore for the most part, and again, it didn't affect my day to day. I spoke out against Lee Kuan Yew's viewpoints which was not taken lightly by many people. I'm sure that at some point in time I was noted as a "revolutionary" or "potential troublemaker"
It did not affect my day to day there either.
What will affect my day to day in the manner you are talking about? The ability for me to THINK as freely as I want to within the confines of my own domicile and space. Anything inbound or outbound of that space is in my opinion fair game, that includes other people who do not belong to that household.
edit: bad their grammar error.
