Um, Paul? I hate to break it to you, but they're not moderating yet. If they were, we wouldn't get as much slime as we do on the list.
One memorable "censorship" incident occurred when the lying cocksucker John Gilmore (spit) forcibly unsubscribed me from this list because he didn't like the contents of my submissions - or did you forget already? Look up Declan's disgraceful writeup on Netly News archives. At that time most valuable contributors to this list (such as myself) resolved not to contribute crypto-relevant content to a censored forum.
Personally, I wish they'd hurry up. I'm getting rather annoyed with the spam, the "you're all homosexuals" postings, the posts by morons that can't figure out Majordomo or their mailers, and so on and so forth.
Not sure about "all", but someone whose name sounds like AIDS, and who advocates censorship, most likely is one.
So I ask you this: If the moderation isn't yet implemented, then how has it "gone down sharply since the start of the censorship [which hasn't been done yet]?"
The way Sandfart has gone down on Gilmore or the way Gilmore has gone down on Inman? Or the way "copyright violations" (formerly known as "news spam") will not be sent to a censored forum?
<sarcasm> I just can't wait to see what kind of witty comment Dimitri will have on the first and second paragraphs of my response. </sarcasm>
