Origin:A term from Internet Relay Chat (IRC). "Voice" (mode +v) is a per-user channel status that lets a person speak in a moderated channel (mode +m), and "devoice" means taking it away with -v, usually through the command /mode #channel -v nickname or a client shortcut such as /devoice. It leaves operator status, if any, untouched and does not remove the user from the channel. Operators on networks with channel services can also do it through the service bot. The first use of the word is not documented.
