The
Guardian goes into censorship overdrive over Putin’s speech to
the UN
28
September, 2015
Several
people have contacted us to say they had their accounts at the
Guardian put on moderation within minutes of it starting its “live”
coverage of Putin’s speech.
From
what we have been told this looks like a pre-emptive bid to silence
known “putinbots”, since the moderation was done before those
affected had attempted to make a comment. One person had their
account pre-moderated in their absence, having not visited the paper
since yesterday, the 27th.
If
anyone else encountered this bizarre situation please let us know.
