Withholding information about military strategy or the operations of an intelligence agency to the press is one thing.

Meticulous and widespread censoring of phrases like "rubber duckies" just because it might remind people of Tiananmen Square or "Winnie the Pooh" just because people mocked Xi Jinping is another thing.
