Their contents are dangerous depending on where one lives, and possession of this map can be a serious legal offense. So, what do the books actually contain?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Uncensored Library houses multiple wings, each for countries where there is no (or lacking) freedom of the press. There, players can find and read completely uncensored reporting from those countries, detailing everything from unjust punishments to discussions on censorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venturing further, one will also find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meloncube.net\/blog\/are-the-backrooms-in-minecraft\/\">a room<\/a> dedicated to how the pandemic impacted reporting, a wing on the creators, and a large central room containing the press freedom index. This index details the current state of press freedom in every country on Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Made the Most Controversial Map in Minecraft<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"439\" height=\"226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meloncube.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TheUncensoredLibrary_BookExample.webp\" alt=\"Most Controversial Map in Minecraft: Uncensored Article Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.meloncube.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TheUncensoredLibrary_BookExample.webp 439w, https:\/\/www.meloncube.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TheUncensoredLibrary_BookExample-300x154.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 439px) 100vw, 439px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Uncensored Library was made by a group called <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Reporters_Without_Borders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Reporters Without Borders<\/a> alongside Blockworks, DDB Berlin, and Mediamonks and released on March 12, 2020.
