More of a rant (I can say rant on here but probably would get post flagged on yahoo), but have any of you who post in yahoo comments (if anyone still uses yahoo) had a problem with seemingly benign comments getting flagged as violating the language rules? Is it just bad AI?

I was making a comment about a earnings call and I think I used the word hot or maybe losing and my comment was rejected for language.
 
Sounds familiar. I've noticed Artificial Stupidity elsewhere at yahoo this year. Remember yahoo is the company that acquired the popular egroups site, then changed it to employ Neo (new UI), which users hated. Usage dropped so much yahoo shut down the groups. Groups.io took up the slack.
