A cell carrier cannot censor a text. Technology doesn't work that way. If anyone is censoring it, it would be Google/Apple, but even then that would be extremely difficult to pull off.
It's happening. It's happened to me. My friend sent screenshots showing she didn't receive the link. Had to run the link thru a url shortener to disguise it to get it to go thru text. It was from Android to iPhone. Verizon on my end and not sure the carrier on her end.

Again, carrier is irrelevant. You cannot scan + alter a URL in SMS or MMS. There is no such ability.
If it is indeed happening, it is either the sender's phone OS, or the recipient phone OS.
Could be Apple then. Mine were sent from my Android, to Apple phones. Didn't go through, twice on each (4 times total).
