5. Patreon and pay wall
I think having a decentralized option to begin with is great however giving our users a Choice to add encrypted posts to a centralized repository is viable... maybe at least a 3rd party or allowing the user to choose between a couple options? I dont think platforms like ourselves want to be responsible for storing sensitive material and sometimes illegal content.
5b. The big issue is how each platform gives the reader access to the encrypted content perhaps. We check if pay wall requirements are met then become the arbiter if the reader is allowed access? Or does the creator somehow directly impact the access? Perhaps the creator decides to trust peakd for example for us to verify who has access to content and then gives us the ability to decrypt for that user. That is not the perfect system of course but i dont know of better ones.
