I'd be more apt to care and not assume this was just IARing around unneeded red tape if you could show where this censored legitimate discussion about anything, and i stress legitimate, we aren't a social networking site

User:JzG has just, without any discussion whatsoever, added antisocialmedia.net to the English Wikipedia spam blacklist, although usual practice is to discuss all entries in the talk page beforehand. Since this is a site that has been termed a so-called "attack site" because it reveals information about certain prominent Wikipedians that they want to suppress, adding it to the spam blacklist serves as yet another backdoor to sneak in a spawn of the failed BADSITES policy to censor discussion. The spam blacklist is intended for the specific purpose of stopping spammed links to irrelevant sites, and I know of no consensus for any policy to (ab)use it in other manners.
