    Its possible to have back and forth conversation on a wikipedia user talk page, are they banning wikipedia too? The comments section on a news website? Desktop email clients and hotmail accounts?

    I can’t see a way where this doesn’t end up being used to restrict information from wider society. Even just banning kids from the internet, is restricting millions of people who deserve to be able to access the resources on the www

      You’re acting like Wikipedia talk pages and especially news site comment sections are some bastions of discourse 😆

      They’re all cesspools of shit that don’t bring any joy to anyone except trolls, pedants and energy vampires
