Well, It's pretty much a commenting platform like Disqus, but with user privacy in mind, which seems a little strange to me, since it was conceived with (stopping) trolls and harrassment in mind. Point is, isn't identifying such individuals a way to explore their online data? I might be jumping to conclusions, but it is one of those topics that stink more whenever you mess with it.

The privacy part is that companies get to run their own instance of it instead of trusting all of their commenter data to a 3rd party like Disqus.

  Unfortunately, it doesn't really remove the shadiness of the issue. Too bad.

    I'm not sure what the privacy issue is here. That moderators could connect a user's posts together? That's true of all popular platforms (where the user isn't using Tor anyway).

Right below the fold of the Talk site [0] > We’ve created a streamlined system that can improve how people behave and interact in the comments space, and allow moderators to more easily identify and remove disruptive comments. Seems like one of its primary functions is a censorship tool. "Disruptive" is a very subjective term. [0] https://coralproject.net/products/talk.html https://coralproject.net/products/talk.html
