Limits:

Dissenter appears to have limits. I remember a few comments didn't go through for me in 2019 and possibly 2020 as well. There may be limits to how often or how many comments can be posted on a single web page. It could be technical errors, as in malfunctions.

Spam Block

It could have been when my comments were very small or if I was trying to copy and paste the same message onto the same web page, as in duplicate comments. In other words, it may not be censorship.

Good Censorship vs Bad Censorship?

And by the way, I'm not against censorship. Instead, I'm against publishers like Facebook who pretend to be platforms as they say they will not censor anything and then say they do censor things.

Transparency

I prefer transparency. I prefer that a website tells me what their rules are. They should follow their rules. The problem can be selective enforcement of the rules. I'm not saying that they should censor or that it is censorship. It depends. But if they say they will not censor and then censor, that is a bigger problem. If a social network has one set of rules and then suddenly changes their rules without telling their users, then that is a pretty big problem.

Dissenter

I'm not saying that Dissenter is perfect. But it is the best page commenting add-on that I've ever seen. Well, to date, the only one I've seen. I'm also trying to say that censorship is fine within the realm of private property. Now, technically, certain parts or certain aspects of the Internet can be or might be public property, completely or to an extent, in some ways, long story. So, it can be argued that public town squares offline and online should not be censored at all or to an extent.

Private Property Rights

But private property owners should have the right to do whatever they want with whatever that they might own. I believe in ownership rights. I believe in private property rights. All of this can be complex with all of these different things. I like Dissenter. But if Dissenter is perhaps doing what they should not, then I hope other things can compete with it.

Dissenter & Steem

Same thing with Steem. If Steem goes down the wrong path, excessively, aggressively, without original oatmeal, then shame on them, long-term speaking.
