XF 2.2 Hiding forum posts from certain sections

[Jon12345]

I have a politics section on my board, which some members like to participate in. Others hate it. So, I was wondering if there is a way to hide it from certain members? i.e. they can self-select which forum sections they can see and also whether or not the posts appear in the Latest Activity and What's new sections.

Is there a way to configure this? Or plugins for this?

ooh. i never thought of using this to allow members to hide certain sections of the forum from their own personal account.
