political censorship

Political censorship is when authorities limit or control information related to politics, government, or key social issues. This can include suppressing certain news, opinions, or discussions that challenge or criticize those in power. The goal is often to maintain political stability, control public perception, or prevent dissent. It can be done through laws, regulations, or direct suppression by government agencies or influential entities, affecting citizens' access to a full range of ideas and information. Essentially, it's a way of restricting freedom of expression concerning political matters to shape public understanding or protect certain interests.
