No we don't need that type of legislation.  We have courts that until now
have served us well, in the online and bricks-and-mortar world.  The last
thing we want is another private policeforce that decides that things that
they don't like are hate speech and should be deleted.

     Our unique situation in South Africa desperately requires similar
     legislation. The German
     legislation serves to enforce free speech and protects society at
     the same time.
