I think this type of news is very hard to sell when most people in most countries already think that censorship is something positive and desirable. Free speech was very easy to sell when most people didn't have much reach, and de-facto censorship was easy to apply through elite norms and ostracism for anybody breaking those norms. Now that we have the internet and everybody has infinite reach we are getting the true test of free speech, and it seems that most countries don't really like it.
