A great post, thank you. I would have followed you by your GIF alone! You can probably tell from my name that I'm no fan of Google/YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and others.
I believe the blockchain can help to fix some of the horrible injustices in the world, and as you mentioned, that often exist solely because some had the misfortune of being born in a certain location. I didn't realize the amount of people that don't even have a bank account, but hopefully soon, even that won't matter.
I'm loving the blockchain technology, and the hope of a better future! I think Steemit is a perfect example of how we can change things, and not reply on corrupt governments, and criminal bankers to run/ruin our lives.
