These are the worst that exist where they manage many news pages and do not allow free expression and for any reason without having a basis and foundation because they block you but the worst thing they do is that they sell the users' information, they are a scam so no I recommend that no one comment or give their email or data on pages that they manage

They will not explain what is wrong with the following response to the claim that animals do not kill except in defense or to eat: "Except for lions, leopards, other cats great and small. And ants. Or bees. Meerkats. Dolphins. Mongooses. Chimps. Actually, rather a few that kill preemptively, to protect territory, to bring females into heat,.. heck even housecats kill for pleasure: they aren't eating those mice and birds. Yeah. Killing for reasons other than survival abound in the animal kingdom." In denying this rebuttal, they deny reality and promulgate the spread of disinformation.

Got censored by them on Yahoo for posting a factual analysis of a stock and highlighting information from publicly available news articles that current investors may not be aware of. The US Department of Justice needs to investigate openweb for their censorship practices.

Newsweek ran a story about Riley Gaines, who supports the idea that women's sports should be for people with female bodies, and criticizing Biden for changing Title IX to include males who identify as female. A reader commented, asking about what she meant. I replied with an explanation that was factual and had no hateful language or derogatory statements. I said nothing about wider issues. It was rejected as being "against community standards." I suspect that any statement against Biden's position would be blocked.

They censor completely benign words and wording that is expressly relevant to an article which often times is used in the articles that they "moderate". Contrary to their name they actually make it harder to converse with the online community and are just a blatant censorship tool. There is absolutely no oversight over these people and no way to appeal their decisions when you've been targeted.

These people will remove innocuous comments, and when you appeal, it's rejected. In the mean time, they refuse to remove outright racist and homophobic comments, regardless of how many people report them. (Including such comments as a person stating that AIDS is a cure for gay people, and hundreds of racist comments on any post involving people of color). Their AI got so many of my comments removed, so I appealed all of the innocuous ones, then they removed my right to appeal, all because their AI is absolute garbage. I'd love to know how to contact Yahoo and CNN directly to make them aware of how bad this service is. Edit: They have also repeatedly deleted any comment which is critical of their service. They don't notify you that it's been removed, it just disappears. This has happened to me several times, including today. Oct 6: Now those POS have gone through and deleted every single comment I've ever made on Yahoo AND blocked my ability to post at all. All because I tried to post a link to FEMA addressing the lies being told about their hurricane funding.

I am on Yahoo everyday. I usually contribute a comment on news articles which Yahoo posts. The last few days every post I make has been rejected. So I tested them. I cut and pasted a direct quote from an article. No comment, just the quote. It was rejected. I appealed because I had been getting rejected each time I had posted something. Openweb has not responded to my appeals. I have been censured for no reason. I have not broken the "community guidelines". Is there a First Amendment attorney out there?

While reading an article on CNN's website, I always see a "comment" button but when I click on it, it takes me to the bottom of the page but no comments show up. There are always 200+ comments on these articles but for some reason I can't comment or see the ones that are there. The article I was reading today when this happened is at "httрѕ://ԝԝԝ.ϲոո.ϲοm/2024/09/05/mеԁіа/ԝhіtе-hοսѕе-ϲοոԁеmոѕ-tսϲkеr-ϲаrlѕοո-ոаzі-рrοраgаոԁа-іոtеrvіеԝ/іոԁех.html#οреոԝеb-ϲοոvο" After going to OpenWeb's site and reading their material, it appears to be a censorship platform aimed at only allowing comments that fit neatly into what the site owners want them to be, rejecting all other comments that don't fit into the narrative the site owners are pushing. That is what it seems like it is geared toward. They boast of boosting site usage, increasing the time spent on the site by users, and user retention. I guess that works as they say when they eliminate all other points of view except for one. And perhaps that does generate more revenue for a site like CNN, but what does that do for our society by creating an echo-chamber where everyone believes the same things and repeatedly pat each other on the backs for doing so? People who would sell our 1st amendment right to free speech for any amount of money lack the kind of qualities that true Americans have. I personally hope this company goes bankrupt and preferably before they help bring about the end of free speech.
