RE: Steem is not YouTube. Violating the Terms will not get your Content Removed

in #youtube8 years ago

Right now, @cheetah bot is doing a pretty good job at finding offending web-accessible textual plagiarism. It doesn't cover other types of offending content.

Such as? Maybe I'm just being dense, but what other examples of "offending text" aside from plagiarism would need to be removed?

Sort:  

Spam, scams, dangerous links to malware etc. I'm sure there are others just can't think of them right now.

The scams are going to be an interesting one. But thankfully, a lot of Steemians are going to be real wise real quick. A recent notorious scamster showed up on the scene about the same time I got onto Steem. He was downvoted quickly... His post wasn't even past 7 days, so it was knocked down to nothing.

Bye, bye, scammer. The parodies of him did well, however.

Divorce disputes. Barbra Streisand effect lawsuits. Legal battles that deal with minors, pornography, and libel. State secrets. Proscribed speech in countries where naziism or holocaust denial are illegal. Trade secrets. Military secrets. Espionage.

Basically, whatever the elite Judges and Courts can think up and order people around to do. If those courts are tried to a military dictatorship, then the will of the State, which leads to debtors prison and other nasty things. If the courts are tied to a police state, then the police can be ordered to lock people up until the content is removed or the prison sentence is served.

The MPAA is notorious for making it illegal to share keys and/or share info on how to bypass video encryption schemes.
