Censorship

Censorship is the process whereby official bodies are able to reject a publication of a product or text. Censorship of music can stop a song or video from being publicised or broadcasted on radio or television. Some institutions or artists choose to censor even if governing bodies do not. Internet censorship is still very minimal.
Moral censorship is the removal of materials that are obscene or otherwise morally questionable. Pornography, for example, is often censored under this rationale, especially child pornography, which is censored in most jurisdictions in the world.
Political censorship occurs when governments hold back information from their citizens. This is often done to exert control over the populace and prevent free expression that might foment rebellion.
Examples of Censorship:
• Self-Censorship
• The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC)
• Ofcom
