I mean like:

If someone were to say “Lets Kill [Name of Politician]” and it gets removed, its still in modlogs. So like, I think the law still count modlogs as being on your website. So its not gonna remove legal consequences. And also, its not really gonna stop other people sympathetic to your cause from reading it from the modlogs and potentially get inspired/radicalized to do the act.

So what’s the point? Modlogs, while providing transparency, seems counterproductive.

    Does the app matter?

    I thought it might be because you said:

    Removing a comment also makes it impossible for people to join and carry on the conversation.

    But it’s very possible. It really just requires one extra step (looking up the comment in the modlog) and you can interact with it as usual.
