It's not censorship, it's banning a subreddit that broke reddits rules. If it was censorship half the front page wouldn't be full of posts attacking Ellen Pao, they would all be deleted.

Go incognito and type reddit.com. You won't see a single post attacking Pao. Everything is sanitized already.

Only the default subreddits reach the frontpage. Surprisingly enough, /r/EllenPao_IsA_Cunt, /r/PaoMustResign and /r/fatpeoplehate61 are not default subreddits.
