Unlike Indymedia however despite stating that : "A record of all editorial actions, which editor performed the action and the reason for it are sent the editorial email list which anybody can join. So if you want to keep an eye on the evil censorships of the UCD SU-cabal, you know what to do. Subscribing to this list means you will see all articles and comments which have been hidden and the reason why they were hidden.
