This sort of censorship action is common in European countries. In many nations, the laws allow the government to prohibit speech that they believe threatens the well-being of the state. They exercise this power more often than the U.S.
The mentality of some European states is that
the government must protect the people from harmful and influential information that could infect them with bad ideas (like nazism).
Maybe this government-over-people mentality is leftover from the era of monarchy and the absolute sovereignty of the king.
