Censorial

Given that the true position of Royals within the Westminster system is to protect the people from the government, the idea of a Prince is meddling in censorial conversations with Silicon Valley is repulsive to the standard he is meant to uphold.

What we are seeing is, in the words of Columbia law professor Tim Wu, a situation where “speech itself is seen as a censorial weapon”.

Costs and civic responsibilities The devolution to the censorial jurisdictions soon became a practical necessity, resulting from the growth of the Roman dominions and the diverse labors which detained the censors in the capital city.

Donizetti found himself increasingly chafing against the censorial limitations which existed in Italy (and especially in Naples).

Infamia and the censorial verdict was not a judicium or res judicata, Cicero pro Cluentio Oratio 42. for its effects were not lasting, but might be removed by the following censors, or by a lex (roughly "law").

In Italy, the censorial responsibility passed to the commanders of the Roman armies, and later to special commissioners and in some cases perhaps to the local magistrates.

In the Eastern Han era he was chiefly a civil official who shared many of the same censorial powers as the other two Councillors of State.

The dark side of his censorial power involved a restriction in freedom of speech, and an increasingly oppressive attitude toward the Roman Senate.

The funeral of a censor was always conducted with great pomp and splendour, and hence a "censorial funeral" (funus censorium) was voted even to the emperors.

The punishment inflicted by the censors in the exercise of this branch of their duties was called nota ("mark, letter") or notatio, or animadversio censoria ("censorial reproach").

Thus, he could hold censorial powers, while technically not subjecting himself to the same checks to which the ordinary censors were subject, and he used these powers to fill the Senate with his own partisans.
