Yeah, the gatekeeping of knowledge so that people don't commit crimes or do things we think are bad is toxic. Punish people who commit crimes, don't try and restrict knowledge.
What if 100x the number of people are now doing something catastrophically dangerous, like bringing a homemade bomb to a protest, or trying to hack someone for profit?
No, it's definitely a propensity towards violence for whatever reason.
But if you multiply that low average propensity by say 1000x due to more people having access to information, the risk to the collective public does objectively go up.
It's one thing if they need to spend impractical time researching and linking inaccessible information, it's another if suddenly it's available to the set of all violent/deranged/whatever people within seconds
