Leave out the words "worthwhile" and "info".

Censorship IS suppression. Period. No distinction made as to the "worth" of the info as worth is in the eye of the beholder.

It's also rather insulting. Don't you think we're all old enough (I'm avoiding "mature enough") to make our own decisions about what's worthwhile and what isn't?
