About the Censorship Archive

A free-speech transparency project documenting how major platforms moderate speech — and where that moderation may be applied inconsistently.

Evidence over rhetoric

We let screenshots and side-by-side comparisons speak for themselves. The interface stays neutral; the record stays factual.

Transparency, not activism

This is a documentation project, not a campaign. We catalog moderation actions across all platforms, categories, and viewpoints.

A public research tool

Cases are searchable and exportable for journalists, researchers, and anyone tracking how platforms enforce their rules.

Mission

The Censorship Archive exists to create a transparent, searchable public record of content moderation decisions — particularly cases that suggest double standards in how religious, political, and ideological speech is treated across major platforms.

We do not host the original censored content. We host user-submitted screenshots and neutral commentary. We do not endorse any specific religion, ideology, or political position. The project is grounded in free-expression principles and the belief that public accountability requires public evidence.

What we accept

  • Screenshots of removed, shadow-banned, restricted, or labeled content.
  • Side-by-side comparisons with comparable content left unmoderated.
  • Neutral, factual descriptions and accurate metadata.
  • Links to original posts or archived versions when available.

What we do not accept

  • Fabricated, doctored, or misleading evidence.
  • Illegal content, doxxing, or personal information.
  • Content uploaded to incite violence or harassment.

Staff removals are logged with public reasons. Community members can flag submissions for review.
