The idea is great and the tool is working properly. You can share your thoughts on any website, bypassing censorship of the author's page. However, barely anybody is using it. Another good way for the censorship bypass is sharing the link on Reddit and start a discussion there, but this solution here is perfect, because you can start commenting anywhere without any hassle. I suggest to use it, nontheless, maybe it will evolve to something cool regarding free-speech.

This is a great tool. I lvoe to share my opinion but many thin-skined authors disabled their comment box.
