Description:
When redesigning the LWN site in 2002, we thought long and hard about
whether the ability to post comments should be part of it; LWN had not
offered that feature for the first four years of its existence. There were already plenty of examples of how comments can go bad by then, but we
decided to trust our readers to keep things under control. Much of the
time, that trust has proved justified, but there have been times where
things have not gone so well. This time is quickly becoming one of those others.
