There are a lot of words used in various discussions today that have
some bias.

For example, the word /ban/ is quite disparaging to the victim.  Simply
using the word continues the bias.

>From a technical perspective, banning somebody from a mailing list and
censoring somebody on a mailing list are both achieved by clicking the
same button.

Use the word ban, it leaves a lingering feeling that the volunteer may
have done something questionable.

Use the word censor, it implies the organization is avoiding some
questions.
