From https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/censor#dictionary... > censor (verb): to examine in order to suppress (see suppress sense 2) or delete anything considered objectionable. > also: to suppress or delete as objectionable Government censorship is a very notable class of censorship, but the word has a broader meaning. |

If we valued banning all censorship we'd make laws banning that. We don't: we value private property and free speech instead. Taking the rights of private parties to control what they publish tramples both of those rights. It's not complicated: you have a right to own your 'press' and do whatever you want with it. You don't have a right to someone else's press.
