the act of banning or deleting information that could be valuable to the enemy

What is "censorship"?

Censorship refers to the act of controlling or limiting what can be accessed, shared, or published, often for reasons of security, politics, or control. This type of censorship is commonly used during times of conflict or war, where information that could benefit an enemy or harm national interests is suppressed. Governments or organizations may restrict certain news reports, communications, or documents to prevent sensitive or damaging information from reaching the public or adversaries. While censorship aims to protect security, it can also limit the freedom of information and public knowledge.
