I think anybody could anonymously write whatever they want without concern for downvotes, if they have enough resource credits. The account"s reputation would be trashed and the account would never earn anything. However, the posts could not be stopped. This only occurs if reward is detached from the personal motivation.
Being open the way we are and wanting rewards is what silences us. But if we have an alt account without profit motive, we can write anything.
Having an alt account takes effort most people are unwilling to put into another page which goes to reinforce my point about people not really giving much care to FREE SPEECH.
So if this is the case, why not create the best for-profit system where the chain is getting as much as it is giving. For instance increase the cost of resource credit; push for more L2 that need RC to operate; an improved reputation system that determines how hive inflation is distributed.
Those things take far more effort than an alt account. This is more unlikely to occur.
I care deeply about free speech and I paid price in 2021 with whales crushing me. in the end it stopped and I moved on. But generally u are fight. Most wanna play the game. It’s true
True, but after a few weeks of whale downvotes and its sub 25 rep and people need to click to see more, most don’t bother. I sgeee ur literally right, but let’s face it after whales destroy reputation it’s not going to be viewed regularly
I don't disagree. But it's not exactly censorship. And one has to wonder about a person who continually posts offensive things. There was a while when some guy posted crazy comments on all new posts. He was clearly in need of psychological help. His account was trashed, but it didn't stop him.
I think there are diplomatic ways of posting disagreeable content if enough care is taken.
