RE: Steem Thoughts - Inequitable Value Between Users and Apps

in #steem6 years ago

I forgot to thank you for your comment @culgin

It is censorship resistant because it is much more difficult for a government to block access when there are full nodes running all over the globe.

STEEM blockchain will naturally have all records. But all frontends like Steemit, busy.org, steempeak etc. will be able to "hide" unwanted content.

Imagine even right now, that some goverment body would create few accounts with large amount of steem. Even by downvoting they can push unwanted content into oblivion.

And what if they will contact Ned and will tell him, that Steem Inc. has responsibility to ensure that there is no "hate speach" on this platform? Surely all things will be in blockchain, but Steemit doesnt necessary will present all those datas.

Does it make sense?

Even if all interfaces are blocked, users can still technically browse content from the nodes directly via APIs. Hence, it is censorship resistant

Oh, you actually answered :) I think that with current society not being on all those major interfaces is like not existing at all. So censorship will be still very obvious for masses.

ps.
Also please allow me to invite you to visit my latest post (my last one in 2018). Together with few friends we decided to organize small charity event "Santa Venezuela" and hopefully we can count on your help. There are many ways of helping our venture :)

Have a great Xmas :)
