Osho once remarked that prohibition is an invitation. This is absolutely true!
The natural curiosity gets the best of us. We crave to read banned books. This is why one of the worst things that government can do during protests/revolutions is to censor or ban a book. Likewise, the government blocking access to documentaries/movies/songs/poems or any form of expression will encourage its further expression or instigate otherwise bored common man in it which if not vetoed by authorities would have lost in the sea of information. Perhaps they haven’t read the quote- “So many books, so little time.”
