‘the regulation imposes censorship on all media’

index on censorship has loads of case studies.
Freedom of speech is the concept of the inherent human right to voice one's opinion publicly without fear of censorship or punishment. "Speech" is not limited to public speaking and is generally taken to include other forms of expression. The right is preserved in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and is granted formal recognition by the laws of most nations. Nonetheless the degree to which the right is upheld in practice varies greatly from one nation to another. In many nations, particularly those with relatively authoritarian forms of government, overt government censorship is enforced. Censorship has also been claimed to occur in other forms (see propaganda model) and there are different approaches to issues such as hate speech, obscenity, and defamation laws even in countries seen as liberal democracies. -wiki (look up better source)ketchup)
-Freedom of speech and expression are extremely important rights; in Britain we have the right to express ourselves without persecution from others.
Media Democracy
A media democracy focuses on using information technologies to both empower individual citizens and promote democratic ideals through the spread of information. Additionally, the media system itself should be democratic in its own construction shying away from private ownership or intense regulation.
When looking at modern art to the one created by "master" it seems they were not held back the dirty shameful form of the human body.
I really like how this painting has been modified to appear to the standards set out for online content .
Again this is the same principle of old art work been made for our online viewing pleasure. Im very confused by how these images of the human body can be seen as offensive.
CHAPMAN BROTHERS
Where do I start with these guys I have seen they work and i have to say it is mind blowingly good but you can see why the weak minded may find in offensive.
Removed for been
"paedo-pornographic"
"This is not about an attack on the freedom of artistic expression, but to avoid promoting depictions with a clear paedo-pornographic context behind the art," said Antonio Marziale, president of the observatory, in a statement on its website.
"Crudity is part of the Chapmans' work, they are known for works that denounce a sick reality," Ms Mattirolo said. "They want to generate discussion about false morality and provoke debate and we firmly believe and support the freedom of expression of the artists."
BLU
Artist doing work that offends local community, mural removed or a media stunt to play on the censorship news stories.
Got complaints so removed it.
HAS work from very big named artist that have had they work censored, they even censore The Origin of the World by Gustave Courbet as it seems that the forbidden parts of a lady should never be seen or spoke of in this world.
Big black blocks always a great way to censor evil.
SEX, NUDITY, EXPLICIT IMAGARY
These seem to be as bad as it gets when it comes to people finding images offensive and as most people seen to suggest and comment that its just porn. But i feel its just the fact most humans cant handle seeing another human naked and that its just embarrassment on they part of not knowing what to do when shown a image with some others skin on. Its from this kind of imagery that seems to cause the most public outrage. Also now with what seems to be a total ban on any kind of nudity on numerous social media web sites this kind of thinking is starting to trickle down to the rest of society.
