My cancelled Usenet article offered a reward for killing the spammer: [...] It's not censorship, you idiot. The dude who clipped out your post was trying to keep some fucking psycho from killing somebody else for some imagined (or not, who knows?) $50k reward.
It's common sense, in other words.
Not realy, Post it to one unnmoderated newsgroup Canceling it would be rouge Post it to one moderated newsgroup Moderator may cancel it Post it to more then 20 newsgroups Anyone can cancel it as spam The post was canceled because the moderator can canel anything in there newsgroup. It is censorship, but by posting to a moderated newsgroup you are concenting to that censorship. - -- Please excuse my spelling as I suffer from agraphia see the url in my header.
