RE: STEEM And The Internet Of Money: Why EVERYONE Will End Up With More Money Than They Can Spend

in #steem7 years ago

Hmm, I think the penny is dropping for me. As we take more control out of their hands they ramp up to try and force more and more control. The bribery and sweet talk no longer works because we can see through it too easily now, so show of force is the current plan. I guess they could try and control the internet like the communist, dictatorship regimes and I wouldn't be at all surprised if they try that at some point.

Sort:  

I'm no expert, but the manner and timing of the ffc ruling to dismantle net neutrality with the tax reform seems like potentially a desperate grab. Did you notice how high Bitcoin rose leading up to the passing of the tax reform?

I'm not in the US so I didn't realise that the net neutrality coincided with the tax reform. I also noticed the increase in bit coin, but again didn't connect the two. Certainly makes you think.
