UK Censorship

UK censorship refers to the regulation and control of information and media by the government or other authorities to protect public interests, including national security, public safety, and morals. It covers various forms of expression, including film, literature, online content, and broadcasting. The UK's approach is guided by laws such as the Obscene Publications Act and the Communications Act. Censorship can involve banning or restricting access to material deemed harmful or inappropriate, but it also raises debates about freedom of speech and the balance between protecting society and allowing open expression.
