RE: On Steem and Abuse

in #abuse7 years ago

Good read. I am glad I ran into your post. I share the exact same opinion as you have, at least in the first section of this post.

We do need to self police Steemit. I am anti-censorship because the entity that censors always has a bias. But what to do? This is a problem if it gets out of hand.

A thought. Compare Bitcoin which can be used to buy drugs or porn of any kind. It survives somehow. I suppose Steemit.com could be shut down by "the controlling entity of sites" but something else would pop up to interface with the blockchain.

I will follow you and watch - definitely considering you for witness.
Cheers.

Thanks for your comment. I'm anti-censorship too, as long as the content is respectful and non-abusive. If we let people get away with offensive material, it would ruin the site. We need a few wolves to safeguard us. Not ideal, but necessary.
