Hmm.I'd wager the vast majority of internet censorship is within platform, like that done by Reddit mods.The most egregious example I've seen in my lifetime was when old Twitter decided to censor a NYPost article, down to blocking sharing in DMs.It seems that type of example is entirely missed here. Is there any attempt to capture that signal?
If you count platform moderation as 'censorship' then there's practically no uncensored public spaces on the internet.Literally even 4chan has moderation.Nobody, not even 4chan users, want an actually unmoderated space.
Regardless there's value to know exactly what topics are off limits and for which platforms. Censorship needs to be measured and quantified (probably with vectors).
