I want to express my outrage at what your company does preventing free speech in China. I corresponded with my friend in China and we mentioned some things that are censorefd in China. His account was on Yahoo.cn – and your website prevented him writing me a reply. Your attitude is repulsive, and yet on this PR blog you are trying to create yor false image as human rights protectors. Bollocks. I am going to erase the Ymail account I had. You will probably not publish this comment – as another example of your free speech policy. Shame on you! I wanted to write an e-mail to Yahoo Office, but couldn’t find any address on-line.

]]> Comment on Gossip, Rumors and Preaching to the Choir by Kevin Donovan http://www.yhumanrightsblog.com/blog/2009/11/05/gossip-rumors-and-preaching-to-the-choir/comment-page-1/#comment-58 Kevin Donovan Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:36:23 +0000 http://www.yhumanrightsblog.com/blog/?p=1085#comment-58 Another of Sunstein's books could do a lot to help thinking about this problem. In "Nudge" he examines how "choice architectures" - essentially design - can be used to nudge people towards a more socially optimal outcome. For example, if healthy food is presented more obviously in a school cafeteria, the students eat better. It would be interesting to see Yahoo! experiment with code/design/architecture that allows people to more easily see through rumors or get exposed to ideas other than their narrow pre-existing views.
