Censorship in Japan

Censorship in Japan is a set of laws and rules about what type of content can be seen and shared in Japan. It means that the government of Japan decides which types of topics, words and images can be discussed and shared in public. They do this to make sure that people stay safe and can't access any content that might hurt or disturb them. Censorship also helps to protect Japan's culture and respect the government's beliefs.
