Censorship is the suppression of
                speech or other public communication which
                may be considered objectionable, harmful,
                sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of
                people as determined by a government, media
                outlet, or other controlling body.


                   - Wikipedia

Could we visualize
                         censorship using
                           Open Data?
