    Further to Constitutional Infringement...

      The lawyers state that a moderator can moderate... IOW attempt to bring a thread back to the original topic, tone down heated exchanges, etc. They have no right to arbitrarily delete posts, lock threads, etc. These constitute a violation of the First Amendment. The only cases where they may delete a post is if it's racially, religiously, genderly or personally, etc. abusive. In which case they must state the reason, in detail, for deleting the post. The same applies to locking threads. A moderator cannot under the First Amendment lock a thread just because he/she feels like doing so.

       

      Any infringements of the above are subject to litigation. And, as mentioned earlier, the litigation can be filed both against Adobe and the Moderator (for lack of a better term), or either.
