Censorship

Censorship is prevalent in the modern society. It is a highly divisive issue. There are proponents who think that its use creates a balance in what ought to be said and written. There is a dispute as to whether censorship is good or bad. It is applicable to programs on television, plays, movies, printed books, print magazines, video games and everything on the Internet. But in my opinion it has many disadvantages, such as; Dictators use censorship to promote a flattering image of themselves and for removing any information that goes against them, it gives rise to and hides abuse of human rights, and it works against creativity.But we can’t deny that it has someadventages such as, it restrains vulgarity and obscenity, and the surfeit of violence in movies and TV is restricted by it.Censorship is just like a double-edge sword. If used properly, it serves as a valuable weapon. However, it can also be misused.
