censorship would it be if posts were deleted (or not filtered on the ML
server). Not Answering to posts is a decision that everyone can make for
himself. If only 2 people are talking instead of 20, the noise generated
is much smaller.

And follow some rules.
En exampl would be: "here is not the place to talk about recipes, go to
chefkoch.de for that". Its absolute ok to say "please don't talk about
technical details on the newbies@ list, please go to dev@". And the same
way it's ok to say "talk@ is not the place for license discussion, go to
legal@". I can't see any censorship in that.
