TBH we don't know the full story of what happened behind the scenes of that video. He might have been given a time limit that he overstepped? He might have been asked beforehand not to ask certain questions but deliberately contavened what was asked? That student seemed like a snotty little ratbag anyway.

Seriously though, if you think that we have little freedom nowadays you really need to look back at History, starting at the 1100's onwards to fully put into context how much more freedom we have nowadays, compared to the poor bastards who lived back in those times. One quick example off the top of my head is King Henry VIII of England around the 1500's who put to death around 70,000 people during his reign, just for trivial little things. Also, compulsory Conscription into the Armed Forces for most of our countries (Apart from Germany) doesn't happen anymore, unlike those poor 18 and 19 year olds that were forced to fight in WW2. Things like that don't happen nowadays.

We should count ourselves lucky really and be mindful of History before we turn into a generation of spoilt brats.

I prefer this version of the Taser event:

Nothing in life is free. At least not for me. The rich get richer and the poor get shat upon.
