I figured that might come up, but censorship whether govt. or not is seen as "oppression due to opinion".
Over-aggressive TLD spam filtering is just bad logic from infosec employees.

Censorship is not limited to “oppression due to opinion”, it can be done for any reason.

If someone omits or deletes people’s texts for racist reasons, that is still censorship, even though it is not done for the opinions of the people who are being censored.
