Badiucao's 2018 exhibition in Hong Kong was cancelled. His 2022 Prague exhibition and 2023 Warsaw show proceeded as planned, however. The artist has noted that the Chinese government’s actions have backfired, attracting more attention to his artwork via the Streisand effect, as long as the museums involved do not succumb to Chinese Communist Party pressure. However, Badiucao also notes that Beijing’s consistent censorship attempts mean that any gallery, museum, or institution hosting him will experience “bullying and intimidation” from a major geopolitical power. +

Baltimore County School District caved to pressure from parents and removed "Buck" from the curriculum at Digital Harbor High School. They did not respond to statements and letters sent by free speech advocacy groups. An examination of Baltimore’s school board policies reveals the process upon which those resources are approved is vague, as is the process for complaints and challenges to reading material in the classroom. Without a unified and transparent process for the community to express concerns, the students are at risk of having their First Amendment rights violated whenever the district feels a book they are reading isn’t worth the hassle of standing up to a handful of angry parents. +

Banned in Memphis,
To show the films in Memphis, local distributors had to delete these scenes. As a result, some movies shown here were minutes shorter than the same films shown in other cities, because Binford ordered the complete removal of scenes featuring prominent black performers like Duke Ellington or Cab Calloway. +

Barstow College placed copies of the book on display following the incident, in protest against the move. The book is still not available in the San Bernardino libraries, although there is a link on the library's website where it is made available for purchase. +

Because of the fatwa and the countless threats to his life, Salman Rushdie went into hiding for years. The Iranian government maintained the fatwa against Rushdie until 1998 when the succeeding government of President Mohammad Khatami said that he no longer supported the killing of Rushdie. +

Because of the outrage and upset that the painting caused, Megalis believed it would be prudent to remove the painting from the exhibition. The festival at which the exhibit took place was neutral and encouraged the artist to do what he thought was best. This incident raises questions of cultural appropriation and whether artists of one group, gender or race may make art about subjects pertaining to other races and cultures. +

Bellospirito sued the library for infringing on her First Amendment Rights and The United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York held in her favor. The case set precedent in in the Eastern District of New York and has been referenced in similar trials concerning art and the first amendment around the country.
In 1996, the Manhasset library displayed Bellospirito's artwork in the Community room. +

Bester was surprised and upset by the students' decision to cover his piece. He did not intend for the piece to offend people. He believesthat there were many better ways of dealing with offense other than censorship. Bester was extremely angry with UCT's inability to deal with the situation.
The sculpture remained covered up since March 2016. In March 2018, senior UCT librarian William Daniels decided to uncover it (according to a GroundUp report; see NEWS24 article).
Academics inside and outside UCT, and artists including Bester, have praised the uncovering. But some members of the UCT community have publicly denounced Daniels.
David Goldblatt, the celebrated anti-apartheid photographer, chose to move his collection from UCT to Yale University after his artwork was damaged and destroyed in the 2016 Shackville Protest. (See: [[Art Censorship at University of Cape Town]] ) +

Both of the artists have spoken out against the censorship. Morel claims that the censorship is a "growing trend toward excessive caution around erotic art." +

Cadice, who earned a pretty unfavorable reputation following this publicity, issued apologies to offended Kickstarter members. Cadice defended his project, however, noting that tentacle rape is not explicitly or graphically addressed in his game; that while the game might be best suited for mature audiences, it in no way depicts or calls upon players to perform rape simulation. +

Catherine Houard, the owner of the gallery, contacted the Mois de la Photo general curator and Maison Européenne de la Photographie director Jean-Luc Monterosso, who advised her to remove Ducruet's work. After she removed it, because she didn't want to run the risk of vandalism, Monterosso denied any involvement with the decision. +

Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, John Frohnmayer, was especially perturbed by "Post Cards from America: X-Rays from Hell." Because of this, he decided that the NEA would withdraw the $10,000 which they had contributed to the show. There was much dispute over the fund, but it was ultimately partially restored. The artists did not see this return of the funding as a partial victory, rather they saw it as an instance of government censorship towards AIDS-related material and art. +
