So tellan, obviously ife I control a Picasso I can:

  • Fix the colours, after all picasso would have used a more vibrant red, if it was on his pallet.
  • Fix the imperfections that have been bothering me.
  • ...More of MY paint on Picasso's paiting...

    And then distribute that altered work, correct?

    Skeg, that is basically my argument. Film history - I'm trying to say - is like any other artistic history - like paint. And no, censorship is not stoping something from being seen, but rather controlling what is being seen. You can ban something - that isn't strickly speaking censorship. But if you say "yes, you can show this so long as it's like THIS" - that is censorship.
