No, that’s only the standard I want to apply if they are editorializing the content that’s being posted.
- ryukafalz 6y agoSo, to use the same CatTalk example from before: if you're running a site dedicated to cats, and you want to disallow user posts about dogs (or cars or pornography or...), you want that site to have to carefully prescreen every comment for legal compliance and operate under a substantially increased risk of lawsuit?
- madeofpalk 6y agoSo HN moderates its content, quite strictly imho. Do you think they should be sued because of a comment you or I make on this site?
