Is yahoo finance biased?

Are internet giants using a pay to play model in an attempt to generate more income at the expense of free speech?In the last few months I have been denied from posting anything related to short selling during certain periods of time (probably deemed critical by the shorts) and when I am allowed to post again the short sellers hurry up to bury my posts under their pile of lies, fearmongering, false claims and  wishes for imminent bankruptcy of the company. 

After having my account deactivated on Yahoo finance more times than I can count without any justifications or feedback arguments I sent them an email to try to get an answer: 
Hi, I would like to raise personal doubts that are shared by many of my friends when we started a conversation about potential censorship and shadow banning on yahoo finance platforms. I personally experience recurrent banning of my posts for posts that I have no problems sharing on many other platforms and that seem totally reasonable to me but that Yahoo deems inappropriate without providing any feedback about the reasons justifying such systematic censorship. There are many short sellers on your platforms that create multiple accounts and post multiple times from different accounts (sometimes same person creates multiple accounts to create the illusion that the posts are from different people but the wording, references used and style betrays the common origin of the posts). The aim being to flood the boards with their posts and bury deep down any opposing views that shed light on their practices and strive to raise awareness around certain practices. I am not sure if yahoo favours paying members at the expense of others but I am really curious to know why I keep getting blocked from participating. Isn’t Internet all about free speech within the confines of the law of course in which case I would be grateful to know why my posts would be considered illegal, unethical, immoral or is it just that I can express my views more if I start paying? 
Thanks for clarifying your position.

Maybe, just maybe, its because you spam all the boards several times a day with your copy and paste nonsense.  Ironic how you say the mean old shorts are burying your posts. Yet cant see the irony in burying other topics of conversation with your copy and paste short seller chicken little act.  You sir, are the reason why people cannot use forums for discussion anymore. Your last name ...more

So you report me on yahoo finance within your gang of short sellers and you dare to come harass me over here :) I am trying to fight the short sellers with their own tactics to mirror their tactics in their faces.

Oh yeah, you're really sticking it to them. That copy and pasting job has really helped our share price hold it together. I think anyone with the last name Shaw should step down and cancel their shares. This thing is being led by the nose into the ground. Go woke go broke. That fluffy release today says it all. Company is being put through the ringers with nothing but disappointing quarters ...more
