What is censorship?
Censorship is suppressing words, idea, and images that are "sensitive" or "offensive" from society. As well as taking out undesirable information from a media source.
Introduction
Censorship can be seen in any kind of media source, including books, newspapers, TV, Internet, etc. It is very useful for important people or in other words, people in charge or with power because they get to choose what society can know and what they can't know.

Conclusion
In conclusion, censorship is a very "effective" way to control what the public knows and what they don't know. People with a lot of influence and power are the ones pulling the strings behind the curtain. It is very dangerous in a way because we don't get the whole truth and it might blind us from the actual truth. We are not able to detect censorship that easily, so we can't be 100% sure of the news we get, the ones we don't actually get, or the ones that are manipulated into something completely different.
