That would be true if it were in fact content that was being filtered. But in this case it is IP addresses that are being blocked, ostensibly as a proxy for context.
That is silly sementic wiggling in am attempt to refedine a word. "Censorship" isn't a just a word that only applies to bad government controls of speech, but any control, even if warranted.
If your IP is being blocked in a country due to a court order you are absolutely being censored.

Doubly so when taken shared hosting into consideration. I've still got old websites running with who-knows-what-else on old hosting accounts, all those sites sharing an IP address.
