Online Censorship In Schools Is ‘More Pervasive’ Than Expected, New Data Shows

Recent findings by The Center for Democracy & Technology reveal an alarming trend of censorship in schools, with conservative-driven policies disproportionately blocking access to crucial educational content. This pattern stifles the development of critical thinking and deprives students of a comprehensive education, by filtering out content that is essential for understanding diverse perspectives and societal challenges.

A study from The Center for Democracy & Technology highlights the extensive measures schools are taking to shield our children from harmful and inappropriate online content. These protective steps, often misrepresented as censorship, are vital for maintaining a safe and focused educational environment. It's imperative that schools continue to enforce these filters to guard students against the relentless tide of dangerous information and ideologies that pervade the internet.
