There was a great talk about the Chaos Computer Congress called “Die Wahrheit und was wirklich passierte” (in English the truth and what really happened) and one of the points it makes is that one way to prevent things from being known to the public is simply to make them so complex that nobody will understand them. Having hundreds of institutions involved in the censorship industrial complex is one such thing.
I watched the film I think the real world is much more complicated. I remember Matt Taibbi saying that he counted 300 organizations in the Censorship Industrial Complex. Syriana has fewer agents than that.
You can’t make a movie telling a good story with 300 organizations and it’s also hard to write newspaper/substack articles about it.
This is basically the plot of Syriana.

Of course, but the primary theme of the movie is that no one has the full picture of what’s going on.
