GBThey need to rename the company "Closed Web." They need to rename the company "Closed Web." Their latest strategy on Yahoo News is to just reject any comment that triggers any keywords they don't like. Or if we don't name them Closed Web, we could call them Lazy Web, because they don't really do any actual moderation of chat comments. All they do is reject their "trigger words." Lol

GBI'd give it a zero stars if I could I'd give it a zero stars if I could. I'm a regular on several different media outlets that use OpenWeb as their comments platform, and it's the worst I've ever seen. Nazis, Klanners, neo-Confederates, hate groups of all kind, and Russian propaganda trolls are their favored user base, and are allowed to post any racist, bigoted, hateful screed they want, 24/7/365 with near-total impunity, while anyone who speaks out against these Reich-wing trash can expect to be shadow-banned (OW's favorite tactic; apparently they're too stupid to realize that you can tell easily enough.) Basically, all the complaints here from Reich-wing "conservatives" is utter hogwash. Take a look at any place that uses OW and see. Try HuffPost for an example.

GBOpen web silences conservative voices Open web silences conservative voices. You can post facts about Joe Biden. And make statements that you believe he is more of a racist than Trump, and your comments get rejected. The left can put all kinds of baseless allegations about Trump and it is published freely. I need to stay off Yahoo when they use such a deceptive moderator.

GBThey're an Israeli company who silences… They're an Israeli company who silences support for Palestine. I have a screenshot where I mentioned Israel was indirectly the cause of 9/11 which was rejected. But a comment if they're the cause of 911 was approved.

GBThe modern day STASI 3 weeks ago (early July 2023) I sent an email to OpenWeb that my response to an article on yahoo, asking why was rejected? I have never received a response back. I made sure the email address was correct, by a few searches on the internet. So, the bottom line after reading other posts on Trustpilot, that they're like the old Stasi. Nothing I wrote was hateful or disturbing, It was a climate change, and wildfires, and I posted the forest service web site form the US government website. Maintaining, and control burning and keeping the area fire proof as much as possible, and most fires started with arsonists with facts that I added. I guess facts don't matter living in 1984.
