Just don't let your paranoia bite you in the butt. I very much doubt
that you are being censored in any way unless you are using profanities
or being abusive to other posters. Microsoft rarely if ever censor
those criticising their products in the newsgroups provided they keep
the language clean and don't post cracks or commercially sensitive
information.

Do an experiment. Access windowsxp.general with MS's servers. Search for
"Alias" in the From field. Do the same thing with another server. I
guarantee you that they've been pulled from MS' server and will still be
on the other server, Google, or individual.net for example. I have
confirmed that and so have other posters on windowsxp.general.

Not only will you see that these posts were censored by doing this, you
will see what content was censored.
