You seem to be saying that what happened is fine because it never actually got to a truly unconstitutional or get-in-the-streets worthy level of censorship. You seem to be saying if they actually revoked the license, that would be the red line. But because they never did, no harm, no foul.

What we are saying is that just by making the threat, the censorship has full and complete effect. They don't need to revoke the license to use the power of the government to influence constitutionalally protected speech. They just need to threaten.

It is not fine. I'm saying they should have had the guts to fight

Yes they should have. But ideally we should live in a society that guts aren't necessary because threats are not made, especially from the government.

It's the second part that's the everyone is really worried about.
