Media censorship law?

[Taozi (Ancient)]

is there any media censorship law in your nation? Such as banning certain movies to be shown in theaters, or banning some shows to be shown at a certain time?

There's absolutely no censorship in Taozi. We don't even have a censorship board. It's not like banning movies is going to stop people from viewing it anyway. So why ban movies?

P.S. speaking of censorship, here's a recent funny video from the Onion about censorship

[Proog]

Autotune is banned in Proog as are record companies,

[Rejistania]

Autotune is banned in Proog as are record companies,

No "A glorious dawn"?

Rejistania has censorship laws but they only concern with things which threaten the continued existance of Rejistania as a free, independent and federal nation, ie: things like military secrets.

[Station 12]

There is no fictional media in Station 12. They are a waste of time and resources.

The only media in Station 12 is digital books designed to teach Citizens how to be better Citizens.

[Lackadaisical2]

There are no limits on freedom of speech, except regarding tapeings of illegal acts, made for profit.

[Isafero]

"There are no means of media censorship unless it's something that promotes racism and hate. Otherwise if there's something parent does not want their children to see it's their responsibility to prevent them from seeing it."
-Isafero representative Carari Grey

[Novus Niciae]

We reserve the right to censor the media if national security is threatened or it promotes an illegal act or hate speech.

Other than that citizens are pretty free to say what they please.

[Bafuria]

All censorship is prohibited by our constitution.

[Parmenter]

For movies and television shows, there is very little true censorship, because we feel it is more the individual's responsibility to decide what it is they want to watch. There is a National Media Rating System (NMRS), but it is more a courtesy to let you know in advance.

Regarding newspapers, news radio and television news, the Government can, if necessary, invoke the Defense of the Queendom Act and put in place a directive to keep silent on a given issue until told otherwise, but no Government has had to do this in sixty years, because they all know it is the Queendom's policy to be as open as logically possible on all topics, in exchange for a little reasonable restraint.

- Adam Henderson, Crown Press Secretary

[Georgism]

We have no media to censor

[Of the Quendi]

The media of the Most Serene Republic of the Quendi is the most free in the world. Since it is entirely owned by the Imperial Dynasty of Alcedina it is however extremely difficult to tell

[Schwabenreich]

Oh yeah. Lots of stuff. Mainly for political reasons, such as you know, saying bad stuff about the established government and monarchy, unless it can be legally proven to be in jest.
They do not however censor swearing, or other things often dubbed as 'mature content'. It is possible to censor more but in such cases it becomes a heavily debated exception.

[Maraque]

Absolutely no media censorship.

[Bavungria]

Anything agaisnt the government, against the The United House of Faith and anything agaisnt the chancellor ulrek solchez or the army

[Mid Lothian]

The only stuff that the media's not allowed to print are:

-> Things that would enable a crime to be committed
-> Military/government intelligence

Other than that, you can pretty much say whatever the hell you like.

[Volnotov]

>> Disrespecting the laws and values of the nation,
>> Insulting the ancestors and the nation,

>> Provoking hatred and/or violence against people based on their race, sexuality, nationality and/or sex,
>> Provoking violence against the goverment.

>> Publishing military/goverment intelligence.
>> Extreme profanity - there is no place for such a thing in our culture.

[Noravea]

We have little laws.

A Government led team rates Video Games and Movies, which only serve as suggestions for parents. If a kid goes to see an Adult Rated movie or purchase an Adult Rated Video Game, let' em buy it.

[Jankenjin]

Other than prohibiting the display of illegal acts as "entertainment", there's hardly any censorship of our nation's media outlets.

[Sidh Ohn]

None whatsoever, though the forms of media are limited by the very culture of Sidh Ohn, but there is no official stance on or banning of anything.

[Ramsetia]

Sometimes considered an act of undue 'censorship' is a flat ban on gossip magazines and rumor mongering.

Effectively; One must cite sources and have evidence before presenting their story. One must also have permission from all involved, including any public figures.

[Greater Rhodes]

There is a ratings system for informational purposes (and informational purposes only), but no censorship.

[Cameroi]

censorship in most forms is generally unlawful under cameroi's constitution.

violent content and that exemplifying and romanticizing thoughtlessness
tends to be self 'censored' in the sense that these are not popular perspectives
in cameroi culture.

[Shrillland]

Most censorship is prohibited. We do however have a Commissariat of Telecommunications that does impose decency standards on television, but only during the hours that children are most likely to watch, and only on Network television. Cable and Satellite stations can censor programmes with their own standards if they wish, but the Watershed applies to them as well.

Salute Comrades!

[Nation of FSM]

Ín Nation of FSM, there is only governements offical news. All other news are totally banned. Also all other media are under governements control.

[Airstrip Sixteen]

All "media" in Airstrip Sixteen is created for public consumption by the Outer Party under the directive of the Inner Party. Basically, every single piece of film, literature, music, etc is propaganda created by the government caste.

The Proles lack the literacy, education, technological knowhow or willpower to create their own media.
