There's no massive damage to society being done here. Law and order and civil society in Los Angeles don't depend on the LAPD's Youtube channel.

The posted article literally mentions the official website on which the content is also posted - and I guarantee most people are neither aware of, nor care about, either.

Censorship can and has caused damage when sweeping news under the rug. I'm thinking of the initial reports of a virus Chinese state media quickly squashed.

I recall more than just Chinese media censoring narratives about it, narratives which they later completely changed course on once it became more politically convenient.
