Except that, in this case, it was mere ban evasion for posting off-topic messages on a mailing list. Do you really, honestly believe that any actual violence would have resulted from this?
As a side note, we* were not posting off-topic messages. And we certainly were not posting viagra advertising. We were discussing tor's funding, tor's flaws, tor's role as a US cyberweapon, and the way one of tor's employees(appelbaum) was digitally lynched by the 'tor project', among other tor-related topics. The reason we were kicked out was that we discussed many on-topic subjects they didn't want to hear about. (* 'we' were Cecilia, Zenaan, I think Alex, me and maybe others)
Meanwhile, you were the one who advocated for getting law enforcement and the government involved over something as innocuous as ban evasion. While I don't disagree in general with your statement that "Legal remedies are undertaken so as to avoid the use of violence", in this instance you were so utterly, embarrassingly, and stupidly wrong that I simply could not refrain from pointing it out.
