They weren't banning just users saying shit. They were banning any users asking wise questions that they didn't want to answer or to be seen by the followers. I know, cause I was one (the very first time I got banned).
No, they're really nice people who signed an NDA without being told anything an NDA would be required for. Come on, they're good people and not at all sponsoring a cult with limited views and no acceptance of visual proof or even slight questioning. That's blasphemy.
