Download the models yourself such as DeepSeek and you will see the censorship is at the API layer, not the model weight layer.

My local Qwen3.6-35b-a3b model would not use the function name. It did the work though, while telling me the the slogan is against the One China principle. So for Qwen it seems to be baked into the model.

		Yes, but it is easy to find and download many Qwen3.6 variants from which the censorship has been removed. This is one of the advantages of being an open weights model.

Do you know of any such modifications of DeepSeek? I don't.

There is no modification of the model itself. The output is filtered by the first party api

Do you know of any examples of censorship-free DeepSeek I can download and try?

		DeepSeek series are open weights models. Assuming you have enough compute at hands you can always download their weights from https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai
