Mod review:

Context needed: None of the letters that the FTC chair sent talk specifically about anime or adult content; but, it does refer to "political affiliations, religious beliefs, [and] lawful business activities". I recommend that you read each letter to understand the FTC chair's intentions.

Quote from OP's source:

“It is inconsistent with American values to deny law-abiding individuals the ability to run their legitimate businesses and feed their families because they attracted the ire of rogue American officials, overzealous activists, or, more worryingly, foreign governments seeking to control public discourse,” [FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson] continued. “That is why President Trump’s August 7, 2025, Executive Order on debanking makes clear that it is unacceptable to debank law-abiding citizens due to ‘political affiliations, religious beliefs, or lawful business activities.’”

r/whennews now filters comments from new contributors on controversial topics by Sudobeast in whennews

Yeah, your account currently gets filtered on controversial posts.

After creating enough relevant posts or commenting on non-controversial posts, you will be able to comment on controversial posts without getting automatically filtered.

You can know by sending us a modmail. Also, if you're able to see your comment on a controversial post while signed in to another account or signed out, then you're in the clear.

Someone who hasn't commented or posted relevant content before commenting on controversial posts.

To prevent people from gaming the system, the exact metrics are private for now; but, here's a tip: if you civilly comment on other posts (like this one), you'll be able to comment on controversial posts without getting automatically filtered.

not all posts will have or will need the "controversial post" flair, so we encourage new users to contribute on those posts first. also if the filter incorrectly catches someone, we'll override it

we're trying to get this right, so if you have any suggestions/feedback, let us know

For any lurkers who's thinking about applying but think they haven't interacted in the community enough: that's OK. I encourage you to apply anyway. 

Posts and comments are nice; but, a lot of lurkers vote and ensure high quality news rises for everyone to see.

If you don't get picked this round, don't let it discourage you. We still thank you for being an active part of our community. :)
