    Censorship is suppression or prohibition of speech

    by government. Private entities don’t have to enable your speech if they don’t want to.

      Oh so network television doesn’t employ censors? Your distinction of government censorship is just flat out incorrect. You’re confusing censorship with freedom of speech.

      And I’m arguing the same point as you about private entities hosting your speech in that same comment, so not sure why you feel the need to point it out to me.

        Generally speaking, yes, they’re different.

        In the context of this post by butthurt OP who doesn’t understand things, the distinction between censorship and violation of free speech is way too complicated.
