To understand censorship, you have to understand the establishment. Several non aligned links to sites have shown that entire sites have been removed as well. So I think to run a media empire you will sign up to some government protocol. That is why Margaret Thatcher could ban the IRA from British media. during the nineties.
People who have complete faith in our "free press" never cease to amaze me. Do you really think that one government actually works differently from another regardless of creed?
And yes I answered that question of yours and got best answer. " Do Americans Know that no Country really asks them for help?" The mechanism for censorship is very clever. There will be one person objecting to that as there will be with most political questions. This gives Yahoo the opportunity to remove it. Job done. Western system of censorship makes socialist ones look crude. The dictators should learn from us.

Didn't read TOS did you
No one has to consult you
I've been deleted 5 times
Just having a question removed would be an improvement

No. you're on a private server, so Yahoo! can do whatever they like. If the government deleted your question, then it would be censorship.

Yahoo is a company, not a government agency. They have the rights to delete anything they dislike. First Amendment only applies to the government, not corporations, businesses or the like.

Why ask US? You should be asking YAHOO.
