Will SN have some level of moderation for spam / abuse?
I'm not sure the following post would be something that would fall under the spam or abuse category, ... but if it were to magically disappear I don't think anyone (other than maybe the OP) would be disappointed.
I want to avoid it wherever possible. In practice, it seems moderation leads to censorship. My goal is that such posts simply never make it to the front page which should be helped when the the web of trust ranking algo goes live.
But eventually we'll probably need some moderation. I think we'll have users over a certain threshold be able to mark posts as spam or low quality.

I agree.
Hopefully the WoT algo will lessen the impact once the trolls and miscreants discover SN.
