The Guardian posted this just over half an hour ago:

There has been speculation that the government has asked media organisations to hide the true extent of the Grenfell Tower disaster by means of a “D-Notice”, now officially known as a DSMA-Notice, as friends and relatives grow increasingly frustrated at the lack of clarity.

None has been issued in relation to the Grenfell Tower fire, the MoD has confirmed to the Guardian.

DSMA-Notices are requests from the government that certain information not be made public by news outlets in the interests of national security. They are voluntary arrangements between Whitehall and the media organisations. Some outlets speculated that such a notice had been put out.

They are basically saying that one hasn't been issued over the fire, but do not rule out protests. Try to find news about it, seriously. There is a Sun article and an Independent one, neither are being updated and nobody else has uttered a word. Stuff is being pulled from Twitter too.
