If it's on contents and stories of online writer, would it poses contraints to their writing?
If it's on the comments, then would it be less attractive for readers?

But direct censorship of the content and language used would directly affect the quality of the writing, particularly for satirical pieces that deliver their message through obscene language/ scenes 

Censoring the comment section would generate annoyance from the readers but would directly affect the number of visitors of the website/ reading platform instead of the book itself
