Based on the New York Times v. United States case, when might it be acceptable for the government to restrict information released by the press?

In New York Times v. United States, the Supreme Court strongly limited the government’s ability to stop the press from publishing information in advance. Such prior restraint is allowed only in exceptional circumstances, such as when publication would create an immediate danger to national security or the public. Therefore, the best answer is “The government can only restrict information that could present an immediate threat to security or the public.”
