I was prevented from posting a comment on the Daily Mail, who now use OpenWeb for their online censorship, because I called a person by their name, which happened to be "Richard Smith". According to OpenWeb, this name is so offensive that it requires moderation, and the comment was, subsequently, rejected because it, horror of all horror's, stood to offend some member's of the community. So, if your name happens to be "Richard Smith", you will have to apply to have your name changed by Deed Poll, before OpenWeb recognise your name. In fact, take either name, "Richard" or "Smith", it doesn't matter, if your comment contains either, it will be rejected. I emailed OpenWeb and asked them what was offensive about the name "Richard Smith", and I got no response. In fact, OpenWeb now censor a good majority of comments for their content, even when there is nothing offensive in them, which leads to various typo's and misspelling's designed to break their Iron Curtain like profanity filter. OpenWeb... The software that actively prohibits you from being able to say a single thing openly, because, no matter what you say, it will require moderation... OpenWeb.
