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.

GBOUTRAGEOUS AND ILL-JUDGED CENSORSHIP AOL News contained a piece about elderly people being alone and lonely at Christmas, and suggesting ways to help them. A response was posted that included an incomplete telephone number for Re-engage, who help such people. I posted the correct telephone number and my post was rejected. OpenWeb's bots would obviously prefer that elderly people remain lonely - obviously programmed by a very mean-spirited geek.

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.

AUThey don't stop hate speech Openweb are astonishingly bad at their stated mission of curtailing hate speech and harassment. Reporting has no impact regardless of how vile or callous someone behaves. Worse than that, they deliberately make it hard or impossible to send them feedback so they don't have to acknowledge what a bad job they're doing. Comments sections moderated by Openweb are some of the worst I've ever seen on the internet.

GBThe subject was about political parties… The subject was about political parties and tariffs. I made the following comment "Did we learn nothing about tariffs with Herbert Hoover and the Great Depression." It was immediately rejected. No explanation, no vulgarity, no mention of current political candidates. More and more the AI or whatever they use is shutting down any intelligence discourse
