RE: Worst Invention in Human History?

You either accept freedom (decentralization) or you accept slavery (centralization).

While it is true that centralized, regulated, filtered, platfrorms like the TV can be used to shield us from bad things.

However history tells us that the government uses it's power EVERY SINGLE TIME to control people and NOT to empower them.

Therefore every centralized system "regulated" by the government, will be used against you, EVERY SINGLE TIME!

Some while the risks of decentralized information are there, like the bad things that happen on the dark net, the benefits of the technology overweight the faults.

Just by having the freedom to research things and cross-verify information is absolutely crucial in order to be an informed person.

Switching channels between TV is not exactly what I would call research.

Hi mate, i understand that we don't neccesarily have to agree on everything. Even the most harmonious communities have "debates" on certain topics, that's quite normal. I know one thing for sure, we both agree on many more things that we disagree on, and most likely this is why we're both here on Steemit. We should not let a few little things distract us from our common goal.

Freedom, free markets, an honest monetary system and a better world is what we all want. Lets work together for that. Cheers.

No problem, it's just a friendly debate, and I just shared my view of the things.
