A future hard fork could discard all flagged/hidden content in the future, yes?
I'm not saying this would even be a good thing, necessarily, but the potential is there to shed parts of the database based on witness consensus?
Good points, thanks for the information.
Still, there should be additional judgement (human, or even AI) taken prior to a deletion.
But deletion must be done, because the current Steemit model is self-defeating.
Look at sherlockholmes' work.
How this place demands deletionsAutomatic deletion of flagged content is a bad idea, due to reasons @seraph exists for, and for more reasons Steemit exists for.
Yeah, that's what I meant. Not an automatic deletion so much as community-agreed guidelines for filtering some stuff for deletion.
I really like the concept though the content can only be hidden, deleting blocks will actually de-value steem if im right.
