Academic censorship? Start your own journal and publish there. Religious censorship? Start your own church and gather your followers. Forum censored you? Start your own website where they have zero say about anything and write about whatever you want.

Government censorship? You are screwed, and you go straight to jail if you try to break free and start your own.
