RE: Busy: Donation Terms. Introducing our Donation Levels

in #busy8 years ago

We try to avoid Advertisement as much as possible but If it's not possible to be sustainable with donation + blockchain incentive, we have other solutions including Ads

(Note: I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.)

Note well that simply because content is in the blockchain does not mean that the author has given you any rights to profit from it. Everything I post into the blockchain, for example, I retain copyright on and reserve all rights to. Without a specific license from the owner of the content, profiting from ads displayed on/beside the content may well expose you to significant liability. Publishing data into the blockchain doesn't give everyone who downloads that blockchain the right to profit from that data.

I totally agree with your statement and vision. This is one of the reason for which we really want to avoid ads.
That's also why I didnt mention Google Ad for example but simply Advertising as a more global concept to-be-defined. Adding Advertising would require more profound reflection on the exact model considering the point you described pretty well.

  • Advertisers could have a dedicated user interface to set up campaign and budget /pay in SBD or Steem or a Busy token. Ads are displayed, consuming the budget, only if the following conditions are met
  • Writers should for example have the ability to activate (maybe select) ad campaign on their content and win some rewards based on a smart contract or some parameters to be defined (like Views/Upvote/Click/etc.) (and de facto allow his content to be monetized with Ads)
  • Users should have the ability to show/hide ads and be rewarded with Steem or other loyalty Busy token if they do participate with their attention for advertisers

Simply sharing a few thoughts with you, However it's not on Busy roadmap and may never be
