IMHO, Technically, the statement is correct at face value.  Airport security checks are not done correctly or 
effectively either.

There is some censorship that is meant to protect (e.g. That which aims to protect against child exploitation).  Not a 
root cause solution, but maybe needed to enable predators to be prosecuted.

This year's winner of the Nobel Prize in literature says censorship is as necessary as airport security checks.
