The Big [Censored] Theory

I can see how this might backfire. You notice a censored jump and start to feel the itch of curiosity as to what it concealed. I had to watch several of the censored scenes whereas I would have never just randomly watched clips of the show.

Also, love the presentation on this page.

We (the HN crowd, often living in less-censored societies) would be very curious.

I’d like to know how curious this would make non-HN people, and those living in more censored places.

My assumption is that they take it for granted and just continue to watch the show. It might be hard for them to even find the uncensored clips.

I think the downvotes you're attracting give some indication for the HN crowd.

Not a single one of those stories was suppressed by the government in the U.S., which is what the article details happening in China. In fact many government officials supported and promoted those stories.

Disagreement among private parties, or getting less private promotion than you wanted to get, is not “censorship”. It’s free speech in action.

These are just a handful off the top of my head…

I can keep going, but most of those people who are impacted you don’t hear from due to censorship.

Always funny when people link to publicly available content in order to demonstrate that it is being censored.
