"I know nothing about Breitbart".

1. I simply do not believe you, but if that is true, it might be worth doing a quick search to see what sort of organisation they are;
2. It is my understanding that Robert Rosario was taken out of the blocklist;
3. I have no idea who Chris von Csefalvay is, nor Clairek Schumann;
4. It is ludicrous to say that Vivek Wadhwa was "harassed into no longer advocating for women in tech", just as it's ludicrous to suggest that the ggautoblocker "censors" or "silences" people.

I have no idea why you are bringing up RH's alleged "harassment" - what does this have to do with ICANN's new policy?

Quoting Breitbart to back up your views is not exactly going to convince normal people now, is it?

But what do you think of the proposal?

The ggautoblocker DOES NOT censor! Can you identify a single person who can no longer tweet because they are included in the blocklist? Of course not. Everybody on the blocklist can continue to tweet. ggautoblocker allows people to not listen. That is not censorship.

the coordinated silencing of individuals that present uncomfortable, narrative-breaking facts

For those people who are unaware what this poster is talking about, Randi Harper set up ggautoblocker, which helps GamerGate harassment victims. The poster seems to think that this is "silencing" people. Of course nobody is "silenced". ggautoblocker just helps other people not to have to listen to them.

Randi Harper has done an excellent job of bringing to the wider Internet's attention ICANN's plan. I know I had not heard about it until I read the page that she set up.

You can't dismiss her just because she set up ggautoblocker.
 

This is nonsense of course. The objection that you and the others here have to Randi Harper is that she set up the ggautoblocker, thus thwarting the attempts by many gamergate supporters to dogpile their victims.

Of course you can provide evidence for all of this? Also, why did you not just say, "Zoe Quinn"?

I didn't know that. Criticism is perfectly justified in that case..

I think you're confusing your targets here. The summary is nonsense of course. Clanlib is obviously not a competitor to Unity or UE4. However, it's not really trying to compete with them. It's an alternative to SDL, which also is no sort of competitor to Unity or UE4. The fact that Clanlib is nothing like Unity or UE4 is not really something to criticise. This does not say anything about the developers, who are clearly aiming for something else. You should feel free to criticise the submitter, who clearly hasn't understood what Unity and UE4 are.

Surely it's their site and their policy? At the moment they are drawing a comparison between gamergate-style intimidation and normal social discourse out in the real world. Some interactions on Twitter do not feel like the real world to me and I guess Twitter wants that to change. But its up to them.

Don't be so stupid. Really, if you don't like twitter's policies, find another site to use. If you're right about this being a slippery slope, their business will collapse as millions of users drift away because they believe they are being oppressed. I don't think that's going to happen but maybe it will.

In the mean time, the rest of us will be able to guess with a high degree of accuracy what Twitter will and won't tolerate. If you're unable to do that, that's fine too. You can get banned or suspended or not.

I think that person's argument is that gamers are being oppressed by Anita Sarkeesian's well-written and argued videos.

Or some such drivel.

Taking quotes out of context like that is just appalling. Normal people do not do that. The video you linked to is from one of the more vociferous gamergate leaders. Why not find the same quote of femfreq?

However, to answer your point:

"Women are being institutionally oppressed all the time, in nearly every facet of our lives" - this statement is hardly even remarkable. It's a standard feminist idea, which is discussed seriously all over the world. I can't imagine why you think the statement is odd or unusual. Here is a hint: there is feminist critique of every art form. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it or pay any attention to it. The problem here is that she has been receiving rape and murder threats because of what she says. Hopefully you can understand that that is not really appropriate.
