Restricted Reading on Shabbos (and weekdays!)

This topic includes:

• What kind of content is restricted?

• What form of writing is forbidden to read?

• What exactly am I forbidden to do?

Understanding how any reading could be forbidden

• What about the general rule of ״דִּיבּוּר אָסוּר, הִרְהוּר מוּתָּר״ i.e., that the prohibition is only technically to speak about forbidden topics, but thinking is permissible? How can reading be forbidden?
