If you do it to yourself it’s not censorship. If the document is owned by the government, and the government withholds / blacks out part of the document, that is not censorship. That’s like saying if you ask me for my real name and I say no, is that censorship? If I want to tell you my name but someone else prevents me from doing it, that’s censorship. And really, it’s not technically censorship if it’s not the government doing it to you. I don’t care that wikipedia calls it self-censorship if you withhold something of your own, if it’s not potentially enforced through violent force of a government it’s not censorship, because an individual or non-governmental entity has no ability to deny your rights as a free person.
