does need centralised blocking of offensive material and action against offenders at national and international level.

Yes, especially material offending current governments. It is outrageous how the russian opposition is trying to influence even children to vote against the ruling party once they are eligible to vote. Poisening their minds with ideas of free speech, democracy, rule of law and stuff like that. Finally websites in Russia can be blocked without judicial oversight.
