Some [[Muses]] are just too radical or seek to unnecessarily harm and cause mental distress to others. In this case, Muses can be placed under enforced [[Fading]] also known as Censorship. This is carried out by a group of Muses disagreeing with a certain Muse's actions. If enough Muses disagree with the ideas, actions or personality of another Muse, that Muse will be Censored. This occurs as a stamp somewhere visible on the Muse's body that spells out the word 'CENSORED' in a capitalised font. When a Muse becomes Uncensored, the word fades away, but the borders of the stamp remain. 

While under Censorship, a Muse will be unable to use their powers, and thus is unable to make themselves known to [[Jo]]. Without Jo thinking about them and the stories they influence, they will eventually Fade away. The time for which a Muse is Censored for depends on the severity of their actions, and whether other Muses still think they should be Censored. Muses that survive Censorship without Fading tend to have a horrifying memory of coming very close to Fading away completely. This memory tends to change them as a person.

No single authority can induce Censorship, but exposing a wrong deed to enough Muses can cause the perpetrating Muse to be Censored. This task is usually carried out by the [[Academy of Thought]].
