Hopefully this drives uptake of those better ways. And if better ways don’t exist, this is a call for improvements (integrating with Wikipedia, the Internet Archive, SciHub, mailing lists/rss, etc).

Honestly I'm getting tired of this sort of moderation on social networks. It has nothing to do with scholarly channels, or Nazi this and that for me; I just don't sympathize with censorship I guess and there's always going to be some false positives and negatives when you start going down that path. It just feels like a waste of everyone's time to me.

Having said that, I think you're right about hoping it leads to better avenues, as I think there's a real need for it.

Yeah, because networks without moderation have gone over pretty well. Srsly, FB is not the solution for everything.
