The wikipedia definition seems more accurate:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship
" *Censorship* is the suppression of speech or other public communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body."
time to update the wikipedia entry then... think parents suppression of "communication [] considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive or inconvenient" wrt their children. the key is "controlling body"... be it ISP, Government, CorporateIT, your mom, or the school board. It might even be -YOU- (you do have control, right?) /bill
