While I agree with you and support the same views personally, we, collectively, should better and fight against the censoring ideology from ground up instead of using (potentially illegal) workarounds like piracy.
Having said that, I'd happily pirate any content that someone censors, and not give any single penny to any censoring authority (for other non-censored content too) and wouldn't feel any guilt doing it.
You and koolba are seriously overestimating the number of children (and adults...) who are willing to read a book voluntarily. Teaching people to get books off of libgen is never going to be high impact, because very few people want any books.
You should go to your local school board and demand they pass a resolution forbidding the library from having copies of the new version generally available. They can keep the new version behind the desk, only available after the student proves to the librarian they understand this is a non original and lacks the literary value of the original.
Do the same with public libraries, except the new version is kept next to the almost porn books.

I haven't actually checked, but I would expect e.g. Naked Came the Stranger, Lolita, and Lady Chatterley's Lover to just be filed under "fiction". I'm not aware of a separate category for "fiction that some people do or once did consider scandalously erotic".
There is a category for actually-porn books, "romance", but you can't make any case for putting an edition of Roald Dahl there.
