On one hand, theuse of digital platforms for news production and distributionhas made it easier for journalists to reach larger audiencesand bypass traditional gatekeepers, such as mediaowners or government censors.This has provided new opportunities forjournalists to report on sensitive orcontroversial topics that mightotherwise be suppressed.On the other hand,digital platforms canalso be used tocensor or suppressjournalism, either bygovernments or otheractors. This caninvolve blockingaccess to certainwebsites or onlinenews sources,manipulatingalgorithms to bury orremove certaincontent, or usingsocial media tospread misinformation or propaganda.The use of digital technologies has also made it easier for governmentsand other authorities to monitor and track journalists and their sources,which can have a chilling effect on freedom of the press.Overall, the relationship between digital journalism and censorship iscomplex and can vary widely depending on the specific context and theactors involved. It is important for journalists and media organizations tobe aware of the potential risks and challenges associated with digitalcensorship and to work to protect freedom of the press and freedom ofexpression.

With digitalization, censorship of information and
communications shared through the internet and other
digital platforms may become even more difficult.
This can be applied in different ways,
especially in countries, for various
reasons. For example, in some countries
censorship can be carried out for the
purpose of protecting public safety,
cultural values or other social goals.
However, censorship can also have
negative effects, such as restricting
access to information and violating
human rights. Therefore, it is important
to carefully approach the management
and supervision of censorship along
with digitalization.
Censorship laws also vary widely across countries and can be
influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural values, political
systems, and international agreements. In some cases, censorship is
explicitly written into the laws of a country, while in others it may be
implemented more informally through regulatory or enforcement
mechanisms.
