I don't think so.
There was a certain loosening in censorship.
In the Habsburg's empire newspapers started to get founded in the late 18th century. That was the era of the so called enlightened absolutism. So censorship which was in the hand of the Catholic Church was taken over by the state, which meant centralization in the deployment, but religious considerations were taken out, they only cared about the order of the state.
From here there was a decentralization pull by local authorities. The Hungarian Diet also wanted the censorship in the hand of a Hungarian authority. Which actually happened by 1840. And as it stood the leader of the office responsible for censorship was a "slow-careful-progress" conservative, who himself had problems with censorship in his youth, so while he was a loyal bureaucrat, he wasn't a fanatic.
There was a pliable principle of "dangerous things have to be blocked" in the new regulation, which meant the censors had to decide themselves what was dangerous.
I'm gonna try to get this new regulation or at least find an article about this.
