If this was allowed to run without moderation, targeting your account on some social network, it would effectively jam you from receiving any other messages on that network.

Moderation is noise reduction, undesirable content (junk mail, male junk, threats, even just uninteresting content) is noise, the stuff you want is signal, usability requires a good signal to noise ratio. Speech can be either signal or noise.
