Long time lurker… sometimes poster: The marketplace of ideas is a century old concept that goes back to the days of landmark U.S.S.C. First Amendment cases, and it is the “marketplace”’s duty to weed out bad ideas (such like SpamAssassin is doing).
But again, SpamAssassin isn’t infringing on anyone’s 1st amendment rights. It’s protecting people from speech they have already decided they have no time to listen to (on purpose – without government involvement). Okay… back to lurking.
