Censorship News
Censorship is the process of suppressing communication on the basis of the broadcasted information being considered harmful or inappropriate by governmental or private authorities. Censorship is a blockchain-related topic. The technology provides no opportunity for changing information post-factum that gives blockchain censorship resistance.

Censorship-resistant blockchain platforms have already emerged in several projects and are continuously being developed within major blockchain systems.
