Asking a simple and plan question in the comments is a violation of their policies...
Apparently asking: "Is.this even legal in the U.S.?" In the comments on one of their articles is a violation of their policies...
"We appreciate your engagement on our website. But we are sorry, we cannot publish your comment as the content is not compliant with our editorial policies. While we do encourage you to participate in conversations on the website, we request you to refrain from posting any obscene, defamatory, or inflammatory comments. We also request you not to indulge in any personal attacks, name calling or inciting hatred against any community through your comments. Also, please do not copy message from the article itself."
At this point this is simply violating the notion of freedom of speech by any meaningful standards up to a reductio ad absurdum.
Count on me to block the Times of India from Google News and never engage with your totalitarian content again.
