Draft:Censorship Industrial Complex

  • Comment: Might be notable but many of the sources are primary or make no mention of the Censorship Industrial Complex so this appears to be in part original research which is not allowed. Also for a topic like this, I suggest using scholarly sources by academics in peer-reviewed journals or books published by reputable publishers. S0091 (talk) 19:53, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

The censorship–industrial complex (CIC) is a concept used to criticize the overreach of federal governments on the speech of its citizens, often online. The term refers to government coercion, often within the United States, of private media companies to push an agenda. Proponents claim that "cancel culture" influences the U.S. federal government, specifically swaying Democratic lawmakers.[1] They warn against Western government and media enforcing widespread online censorship.[2]
