And if Vulis shows Gilmore, though his actions, that he is going to
disrupt cypherpunks, Vulis can be prevented from being on the list...even
though he is easily ignored.

The freedom you, Dave, are exercising as owner and perhaps moderator of

That's why neither of your actions is, in truth, "censorship."
