Censorship be aware.

Most of us will not stop investing and we will use Silicon Investor as a platform to exchange information, opinions, rumours etc.

I got e-mail from Silicon Investor treatening me that I will be kick out if I do not stop feudeing with goldman. I said I would cooperate.
On my next logging I noted however that Silicon Investor deleted at least two of my posting in which I presented facts exposing goldman's childish nature.

What worries me is censorship that exist here.
Censorship = Manipulation It does not matter if the intention was good. Freedom of speech guarantees that people are free to speak. It does not mean however that they do not take responsibility for what they say. They should be punished if they abuse this freedom.

Silicon INvestor in term of use says Because Silicon Investor, Inc. does not undertake to screen or edit messages posted by users, we assume no responsibility .... etc etc
Later they say that they however will monitor and delete messages if they want to do it.

By deleteing my posts with facts exposing irrational goldman's behaviour Silicon Investor deprived other people from making their own judgment about goldman's reliability.It could have resulted with financial consequences.

Once censorship exist it is open to manipulation. They are at risk of hiring somebody who may use his/her consorship power to manipulate flow of the information to somebodys advantage.

I believe that Silicon Investor had good intentions but I say this is not a right method

If somebody abuses freedom of speech and they decide (SI) to terminate or restrict membership that's their right. They should NOT however delete messages because this is manipulation.

Will this message be deleted as well? I may loose my membership but I cannot be silent. I escaped from a country because my freedom was restricted. If I am kicked out from here. So it be. I will miss you all.
