    I Understand the need for some censorship on certain threads, but it's getting out of hand at this point. Anything that is not PRO-Trump get rejected, even if it is stated straight up and honestly. This OVER censorship of the public's comments is totally wrong. Please STOP it ASAP! Thanks

    I have posted comments on an article now about a dozen times trying to find something that wouldn't be rejected. My most recent comment was "I agree with the companies involved." I can't understand how saying you agree with something in an article could POSSIBLY be in "violation of community standards." It seems to me that some other reasoning is behind rejected every comment I make. Someone needs to evaluate the criteria used for determining violations.

    When I respond to an article you post I use nothing but the facts. I do not threaten anyone, nor do I use vile language or use cuss words. Yet you continue to reject my responses without a reason to do so. There is absolutely no reason my response to the Hill today was not acceptable. Please, tell me exactly what I said that was so offensive that it couldn't be published so I can avoid any such references in the future. I know I am speaking to the wind because you never respond to my inquiries.

    Why was this rejected when it is Fact.It is from Sky news and other outlets.

    All seven were handed an OLR and placed on the sex offenders' register indefinitely when they appeared back in the dock on Monday.
    Chinese social media gives reasons and also a chance to edit a comment. Seems Yahoo does not like facts to be given.
    Owens was sentenced to a minimum of 20 years behind bars; Lannery 17 years; Williams 14 years; Brannan 15 years; Forbes eight years; Watson nine-and-a-half years; and Clark 10 years.

    If ever paroled from jail following the "punishment part" of their sentence, they will be subject to risk management for the rest of their life.

    If they go on to commit another crime once released back into the community, they will face being recalled back to prison.

    This is in regards to the article, LAWMAKERS REACT TO GOVERNER PRITZKER'S LINE IN THE SAND FOR TRUMP ADMINISTRATION posted on Nov 22, 2024.
    I made a comment that was followed up by an individual that I would like to reply to, However, the commenting section has ended with a mere 1.5k comments. I have read countless articles that have had 2.5k comments. Therefore, I would like an explanation as to why this comment section has been turned off?

    I am not sure what is happening but i have an idea that yahoo is stopping people from making comments. The newest message I am seeing is ... I have tried to comment on a couple of stories and I all I get is "Your Comment Failed to publish .. Retry"
    I have addressed this before. I believe that if you are going to "censor" someone you should let them know. Allowing people to "report" or an AI that is reading and making decisions what can and can't be published is some wht a violation of the first amendment. While I understand you need to have some control strangling the commenter is not the way. I have had comments refused to allow it in the comments. I said nothing more then what the article said.
    AI control is scary, but what is more scary is seeing a message that says the comment needs to be read by a human.
    If you are going to deny someone from making a comment then you need to explain why not just say that it goes against policy since those "Community Guidelines" can be read and taken different ways
    I suspect that I have once again been silenced and would appreciate to know why and how long I have to stand in the corner with a dunce cap on.

    Comments being removed when they do not violate Yahoo's community guidelines is wrong.

  • Welcome Guest commented  ·   ·  Report

    All comments I post are rejected. They don't violate any guidelines. why?

  • Theresa Morgan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Do not stop customers from posting comments. Do not stop customers from reading comments. Censorship is unconstitutional.

  • Brandon Hoss commented  ·   ·  Report

    It is very critically important to me to allow free and open discussion frume

  • L Williams commented  ·   ·  Report

    Simply don't post the article or send it in the email on yodel. I like that.

  • L Williams commented  ·   ·  Report

    I really just experienced this today possibly. Had to appeal several posts, this is unheard of.

  • george your words are useless commented  ·   ·  Report

    @sum 1 dense or what ? some articles have no option to comment on them at all. if you can't figure out that minor detail before trying to be witty, then the internet is not for you.

  • DOUGLAS HOWELL commented  ·   ·  Report

    I do not use profanity in my posts like some people do and you still reject 9 out of 10 of my posts without telling me why. I have never made threats against anyone. Give me back the Freedom to rid my view of the worthless News Sources that i don't want to see, and then I'll quit posting negative comments..
