What is censorship for the "common" good? The point being that censorship is a top-down thing; it is not a "common" thing by definition.

Definition of Common good is doing what the political establishment sees as good for preserving their power.

It's not what's good for you, it's what's good for them.

This is some weird revisionism. The definition of a common good is what's good for a community.

Your definition is weird idealism from the past that doesn't work in today's corrupt political landscape.
