I get the argument, but are there practical examples of widespread censorship at the "domain" level?

I understand people getting dropped by AWS, or Cloudflare, etc... I'm just curious how far down the stack censorship gets in practice.

This is particularly relevant for systems like #bluesky that rely on domains as a source of trusted identity. Even #nostr  kinda does this too with NIP-05, although the npub is still the core of trust...

There’s examples of absolute full control at the domain level. .mil and .gov for example. See https://get.gov/

Hilariously, whitehouse.gov uses a Let’s Encrypt certificate for their website.

because letsencrypt is the NSA

The USA is the NSA

they cease domains but often only after a judicial decision, which isn't guarantee of anything but better than X
