That’s just going to cause people to invent an even more insulting word.

they are right. it’s their discord and so they make the rules. it’s not censorship.
but it is very much letting us know that it got under their skin. and so i will keep using that name everywhere i can

It’s still censorship. Self imposed censorship is still censorship.

So they won’t mind if we start calling it “NoPilot” then?

They’re within their rights and it’s definitely not something they want to have take off.
But apparently their brand management doesn’t know who Barbara Streisand is.

Microsoft will have plenty more missteps as they continue to fall from relevance.

“After carefully considering the matter, we have determined that we have done nothing wrong.”

Well, here they are right. Censorship is an action by a government, not by a company.
This does not change the fact that the Streisand effect for this stupid move is well deserved.

As the other person said, you are quite wrong.
Censor - to suppress or delete as objectionable

No…
The first amendment protects against censorship by the American government, ideally at least.
Private companies can and do censor shit constantly, and that is definitely censorship.
You’ve just seen people repeat it about the first amendment, didn’t understand it, and are attempting and failing to regurgitate it
And if people see you using it wrong, they’ll start off from an even worse position.
All you’re doing is exacerbating the problem you think your fixing.
