There is the regular MPAA Censorship and then there is new age STREAMING CENSORSHIP: Over the last couple of years, a good amount has been written on how streaming platforms are challenged with non-US government regulations and licensing agreements regarding their content and how they navigate the murky waters of streaming censorship.

Amazon Prime has been reported to removea whole episode from its platform, as well as sanitizing its original content.
