I doubt it fundamentally has to do with protecting their population (as censorship is usually intended to do). At least in my impression, China usually censors for political reasons. Like for example, violent video games might be censored becuase they think it might encourage violent behaviour against the government, games that espouse Western ideals might be censored due to possibly encouraging disloyalty to China, etc. All a bunch of theory that might actually end up going against their objectives, but whatever. They've been doing this for a long time.
