- hwillis 9y agoNon sequiter. Interest and promotion in a movement != pushing an agenda. In the same way, interest in topics on reddit != spamming upvotes. It's literally the exact same process of looking for suspicious behavior and then moderating it. Of course, reddit doesn't do that either nowadays. But the point stands: Blocking bot behavior does not necessarily mean blocking real users.
- talmand 9y agoI would like to see an automated system that correctly knows the difference between interest/promotion of a movement and pushing an agenda. My level of interest may be different than your level of interest; one of which may be considered suddenly pushing an agenda. Also, what's wrong with pushing an agenda exactly? Are we to ban politicians and opinion writers?
- r721 9y agoHow is that suppression? I propose to show publicly the result of an algorithmic process which for now could be done by a human with enough time on their hands.
