Not like they would gain any information, right? Just make them go brain-dead that much faster. But no, the fear is that if the government goes totalitarian (and some are trying, now for a new uproar), they will take those who have posted what they call insurrection and put them away. Or what they call racism, or hate speech, or you name it. That is the fear, and it is not totally groundless.
