RE: Is shadow banning a thing on steemit?
I think @freebornangel is referring to how some accounts (@thedarkoverlord is the only one I know offhand but there are more) are not shown on Steemit for whatever reason they fancy.
I'm no expert on "shadowbanning" though. I heard the term here for the first time.
Shadow banning is when you don't know that you are censored / banned since to you it appears that everything is as it should be, but to everyone else you're effectively removed.
It's not "for whatever reason they fancy" either but a matter not enabling extortion, a matter of ethics.
They fancy not enabling extortion. Any ethic is little more than what the expositor wants or wants to see in the world.
It seems I may have been wrong about his reference, in light of this definition.
wow I can find that account with Steemworld but nowhere else.
Ha thats what we need to have done with the big bad wolf then lol
