Color me extremely skeptical. The supporting article published on WSJ is strangely schitzopheric [0] and an advertisement for HalloApp. > Users who violate the rules must talk to a “conflict coordinator” and read documents about why their behavior was problematic before they can post again. These moves are intended to “lay a foundation for users and set a different expectation” for how users should behave online, Ms. Austin said. Not sure if I ever want to use this app. I don't mind some moderation (like HN), but this is crossing the dystopian line for me especially when groups are limited to 50 people. That means, misinformation/disinformation/echo-chambers are formed on the most resonant groups of people lead by "chief conflict coordinators". You're naive if you think these conflict coordinators hired from Silicon Valley are unbiased, neutral and honest arbitrators of truth.
