Censorship is not a thing of the past. Today, Twitter in Thailand, blogs in Vietnam, and journalism in the Middle East are all censored. Even in the US and Europe, books, films, and the Internet continue to be filtered - controlling what we see and know. However, there are instances where censorship is considered necessary, or beneficial, for example the vetting of adverts that are shown to children, or of violence on television. This book explores the many facets of censorship in today's society.
