Censorship is when some other developer tries to force him.
I don't think this holds. Censoring is editing for ideological reasons, which is a subset of editing. It has nothing to do with who does it. A censor is a third party, and editor is a third party, at least in literary terms. Arguing about the difference is IMO word games.
