The PSU being what it is, any information suppression that is
carried out is of course carried out in a ruthless manner,
so the question reduces simply to "is this information being
suppressed by the PSU?"

The PSU still being what it is, one has to consider that with
access to the time machine, the PSU has control over all
information over which it wants control, and of course that
control will always take the form of suppression.  Therefore, 
the question reduces to "does the PSU want to control this
information?"

The PSU still being what it is two paragraphs later (*), 
it should be obvious to all involved that the PSU does indeed
want to control all information, so the question reduces to a
tautology and needn't be answered.

(*) with access to the time machine, it wouldn't even be 
surprising if the PSU was still what it was two paragraphs
*earlier*, either...
