Censorship in China
Censorship in China is a government practice that restricts access to information and controls public discourse. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) monitors and regulates media, the internet, and social platforms to maintain its authority and prevent dissent. This includes blocking foreign websites and filtering content that is deemed politically sensitive.
The Great Firewall of China is a key tool in this censorship effort, preventing citizens from accessing information that contradicts the official narrative. Topics such as the Tiananmen Square protests and criticism of the government are heavily suppressed, limiting freedom of expression and access to diverse viewpoints.
