It does no such thing. My initial statement was that your computer is a means of production. Your counter was that by posting on steemit it becomes social property because everyone can read it and no one can change it, except you can being the owner of the account and the beneficiary of all content posted by your account. To produce this content you use a computer or phone that you own. Since we're using wikipedia definitions and it would define means of production as "In economics and sociology, the means of production are physical, non-human inputs used for the production of economic value, such as facilities, machinery, tools,[1] infrastructural capital and natural capital."
your computer would in fact be classified as a means of production. Posting it on steemit does not change that especially since you personally gain economic value by doing it.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I was saying that it does not count as private property. I gain from it and I labor on it.
To clarify, you are saying that because no one else directly contributes to creating your content your computer is defined as personal property but if you paid someone to create your content it would become private?
If I pay them a wage or they do not get the full results of what they produce, it would.
It would not be private until somebody worked on it and I did not pay them the full results of their labor.
