Censorship is part of an agenda. This is not censorship, and you calling that waters the phrase down. If I have a poorly constructed email filter, is that censorship? I wouldn't say so, and this example is more in line with that than with any active censorship.

So, in short, no one is afraid to call something censorship, I think they are just waiting for the right time. When it is applicable.

Hiding spam from users is an agenda, so therefore my usage complies with your definition.
Do you think that furthered the conversation, or are you trying to score points? Or perhaps my meaning was unclear?
