I'm referencing your comment about 4kids anime censorship. Guns and deaths don't exist in their TV broadcasts but you can still buy/import/sell the original Japanese versions without government interference. You can also watch the original Japanese versions online without government interference. Any censorship that does occur like 7seas is at the discretion of their editors who probably spend too much time on Twitter.

The same cannot be said about China. Official online anime broadcasts are still censored if not outright banned.

There's no point in discussing bootleg and other illegal distribution channels. It's already illegal, why does censorship dodging matter for the distributors?
