RE: Can someone beat @sami100 to the punch?

in #steem7 years ago

This stuff is scary @abh12345!

The thing that worries me is the way various front ends talk to Steemit and the Steem blockchain.

Let's say I want to use Steepshot. That requires an initial login at Steepshot... isn't that a "transaction" that gets written to the Steem blockchain? And can't someone with a blockchain viewer go in and look at that? I mean, even when I look at my activity with a utility like SteemWorld, there's pretty much an entry for EVERY single action we take. Including, it seems, the initial set-up to pass information back and forth between the various front ends and Steemit, itself.

Maybe I'm missing something here... please tell me I am!
