Patias: The practice of censorship is not only morally condemnable from the point of view of a Democracy, it is also condemnable from the point of view of strategy of the one who wanted to censor. What happens is what I call the "boomerang effect".
The act of censoring aims to prevent a message from being shared, except that once something is censored, this content gains a much more public dimension than if it had been ignored.
That already has a scientific term coined for it: Streisand effect.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect In practice it works like this:
Someone tells you "Don't think about Barbara Streisand!"
But since her name was mentioned, you can't help but to start thinking about her like "Oh, wasn't she that country singer with huge bazookas?!?".
But then you both be like "No, unless by bazookas you mean her nose. You were thinking of Dolly Parton."
After that all you can think about is massive noses. The Streisand effect.
