being able to edit after 7 days will ensure the viability of the platform because it can potentially protect the platform from lawsuits . Example if right now someone were to use copyrighted content and they would get a court order to remove the content , it was previously not possible . This could have potentially destroyed the platform. Now all they would need to do is go in delete the content in the post and pit in an image saying deleted for plagiarism or something like that. Out of curiosity how much does it cost to run a server ?

I agree, I think the ability to edit posts after 7 days is a good step forward and will solve a number of problems. Although there is a worry excessive use of the feature could cause bloat on the blockchain because an edit is handled as a re-author of the post.
The cost of running a Witness server is going to vary on the specification of the server you run, the advised spec if 64gb Ram and 500gb ssd minimum which would cost in the region of $100 per month.
Thank for calling in and leaving a comment.
What does the reauthorisation mean ? does it mean that it is considered a new post then ?
