""Collusion" seems like overstating the case a little to me." Aren't they editing the comments for their customer?

""Collusion" seems like overstating the case a little to me."
Aren't they editing the comments for their customer?
- smacktoward 14y agoWhy would they be? Sites using Disqus can moderate their own comments, and Disqus claims to do no moderation beyond that -- see http://help.disqus.com/customer/portal/articles/466223-who-deleted-or-removed-my-comment- http://help.disqus.com/customer/portal/articles/466223-who-d.... I suppose you could come up with a theory where The Atlantic talked/bribed Disqus into doing the moderation for them, but it seems much more straightforward to assume that it's the admins at The Atlantic who were filtering comments.
- illuminate 14y agoBy they, I mean the Atlantic, not Disqus. Though, it wouldn't surprise me if they had contract moderator options available for companies who don't want to employ their own.
