1. ↑ Self-censorship ( self-censorship ) Self-censorship is a voluntary act of withholding information or opinions. It's often driven by fear of social, legal, or financial repercussions. People may choose to self-censor due to various factors. These include social pressures, cultural norms, and legal constraints. For example, fear of being unpopular or excluded can lead to self-censorship. It is also influenced by demographic factors such as age, gender, and education. Economic pressures can also lead to self-censorship, with individuals or organizations withholding information to meet market expectations. In some regions, self-censorship is a legal requirement to avoid government sanctions. This practice has a significant impact on freedom of expression and diversity of opinions. It can cause a distortion of information reaching the public and limit creativity and innovation. While prevalent globally, approaches to overcome self-censorship include legal protections, promoting open dialogue, and fostering a culture of transparency.
