====Points for Expansion====
JA: I am out of time for pursuing this right now, but one of the points that we need to probe a little further has to do with the '''''function''''' of blocking and banning. Words like ''alienation'', ''excommunication'', ''exile'', ''scapegoating'', and ''shunning'' have been used in the past. What is really going on is not any form of physical transportation, but a filtering out of messages from identifiable sources, a form or "killing the message", if not exactly the messenger.

JA: There really are such things as spam, noise, and vandalism, and so there are legitimate reasons for filtering and ignoring certain classes of messages. When the functions of filtering and repression become dysfunctional for any error-controlled system, however, is when valid feedback about the system and its environment is habitually being ignored.
