"The Pentagon has released a modernization plan for Stars and Stripes that affirms the publication’s independence while expanding Defense Department oversight, introducing new restrictions on content"
Seems like this sentence contains contradictory statements.

I assume it means changing governance policies while letting them continue to make their own decisions within that framework.

It doesn’t.

In which case I'd say you are inexplicably assuming good faith on the part of this government. Are you paying attention at all?

When it comes to “simplest and most likely explanation,” the bad faith assumption is now the leading choice with the current regime.

Precisely. It’s the same methodology used to suppress speech and thought through social media where the terms of service and social media guidelines are used to create a micromanaged framework of approved speech and thought that just happens to align with what one particulate group or another controls.
The next layer of this control harness is to neutralize the Constitution in America that protects inalienable rights, is the “freedoms of speech (within paternalistic approved boundaries), but not freedom of reach” mentality of, “sure, say all you want, but you’ll just be saying it into a void and you won’t even be allowed or even able to see that we have put you in a digital isolation dungeon.
We are essentially allowing and creating an analog to the very sadistic and evil conditions imposed by the ruling class and the hidden hand that ruled your life as non-nobility. You get thrown in digital dungeons with no recourse or rights. You are beaten and abused for you thought and speech. You have no right or ability to defend yourself from the torments and abuses of the ruling psychopaths, etc.
That is why freedom of speech is so important, because the sick and depraved ruling class people cannot stand even the ability of people to talk about the abuses they perpetrate against them. It’s typical abusive patterns of truly awful people that are the enemies of all of the rest of humanity.
“Disembowling” was correct. You had it right before. (:
