Definitions:

Censorship - if the authorities prevent illegal content from being published in the first place, through a pre-approval process.

Free press - if you can be held responsible AFTER publishing unlawful material.

In the US and other free nations we have free press - if you publish something unlawful, you can be held accountable for what you did. North Korea, Cuba and other dictatorships practice censorship, which means nothing unlawful ever gets published because it has to be approved BEFORE it's published.
So by shutting down a site, it will censor anything new on it?

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
