This article exists to call attention to and to describe recent, fundamental changes in postdelete.com’s mission. Some or all of the content of this article may also appear on about postdelete page at postdelete.com.
postdelete.com was initially conceived as a compendium and a clearinghouse for posts made by Honest Joes and trolls alike which have been deleted (actionably removed) from corporate sponsored support forums across the interweb and also as a place for general discussion about moderating practices and the limits of free speech in corporate sponsored forums. For a number of reasons, both practical and imaginary, the postdelete project has been divested of resources and that domain, along with the essence of its original mission, has been folded into the greater hobotrain network project.
Effective immediately, postdelete.com exists as the repository for items which have been deleted or otherwise disincluded from hobotrain network sites.
Items at postdelete.com which are a product of that site’s previous mission have been deleted from postdelete.com, annotated, and re-posted as new articles.
