Robbing and Looting

Soviet Union era KGB robbed and looted activists of Soviet Estonian Christian community(a video in Estonian). The main items that were robbed were Christianity related books, artwork, recordings, but the KGB also robbed("confiscated") spare toilet paper and coffee, which were difficult to get during the period of Soviet Union goods shortage. To psychologically terrorize Christian parents, the KGB threatened them that if the Christian parents do not do what the KGB wants, then the KGB will take the children and put them to foster homes, because the Christian parents have "mistreated" their children by telling them about God.

Historic Events

Selective Censorship

Sharing of links to public web pages, "hyperlinking", is selectively censored in the European Union. (source_in_Estonian, its_archival_copy, its_local_copy, EU_doc, archival_copy_of_the_EU_doc, local_copy_of_the_EU_doc)

An Environment, Where Human Lives are Expendable

Exploitation Motivated Secrecy, Including the Censorship of Technical and Scientific Information

During the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union the evacuation plans of the U.S. cities were not to save the people, but to force the Soviet Union to double the amount of nuclear warheads that it has to spend: one set of warheads for the city and another set of warheads for the publicly known evacuation destinations. (local copy of the 2008_02 TED talk by the Irwin Redlener)
defcad.com was restricted(archival copy, local copy) from publishing 3D printing models of plastic guns.
MIPS Technologies Inc demanded that the OpenCores.org stops linking to MIPS CPU documentation at the MIPS Technologies Inc web site.
A copyright troll, Elsevier, charges people for reading scientific papers that have been developed by using supermafia loot, propaganda wise "public money". If the public paid for the research, then the public should have free, unrestricted, access to the results of the research, no so that scientists and their collaborating "publisher", for example, Elsevier, charge license fees for the scientific papers. The Elsevier uses the supermafia repression apparatus to censor SciHub and the Library Genesis, LibGen (archival copy, local copy).

Obstacles to the Privacy Violations Audits

As of 2018_10 the Estonian supermafia plans to officially license private data to the highest bidder. The private data licensing business model would not work, if the license did not include a ban on the redistribution of the data. If the licensee claims something publicly interesting about the privacy violations, the Estonian supermafia can either refuse to license the data to the party that wants to do the audits. The license refusal can be in the form of an unaffordable license fee. The Estonian supermafia may also resort to some stricter form of a Non-Disclosure-Agreement (NDA).

Use of Privacy Protection Social Demands("laws") as an excuse for Censorship

2019_10 Estonian interpretation(archival copy, archive_org_copy, local copy) of the GDPR is that the Sotsiaalministeerium/Ministry_of_Social_Affairs is allowed to sell "anonymized" data about people's personal problems, the Police is allowed to place automated speeding ticket cameras with car number plate readers, but the "private sector" is not allowed to publish an ordinary, unmodified, photo from the street, because the number plates of cars on the picture might reveal the identities of the people driving the cars at the photographed location.

Low Quality of the Network Infrastructure and the low Quality of the Power Supply Infrastructure

If the network of the Internet Service Providers(ISPs) stops functioning due to power failures that result from storm damages, then the end result is as if someone had intentionally taken down the whole network. That kind of series of events happened in Estonia in 2019_10_29, where the cellphone network kept operating, but both, the mobile internet and cable based internet were down. Land-line phones were also out of order, because if the internet is down, then the Voice-over-IP(VoIP) does not work. Obviously, no card payments are possible, if the internet is down.

Omission from Historical Records

archive.org omits politically sensitive material from its archive(sample screenshot, archive.org URL, original URL, screen-recording of the censored content).

Some Vague Collections of References

Index on Censorship YouTube Channel
The http blockedinrussia dot com might be a "honey trap" for luring out anti-Kremlin activists (archival copy) or even if it is not, then those kind of sites are the ones that the Russian version of the "Great Wall of China" will probably try to monitor for traffic.
netblocks.org Internet blockade measurement tool and its GitHub account.

Reporters Sans Frontieres ranking page.
On 2018_09_12 the European Commission President, Jean-Claude Juncker, proposed that there should be an European Union wide censoring system that removes censored content within 1h (archival copy, local copy).
