they're balls deep in the internet infrastructure
many (all?) implementations of blockchain hosting would prevent the removal of illegal material and the enforcement of copyright. i cannot see any infrastructure for such being permitted to exist in the US large scale.
it's not like the feds are just going to shrug and say "welp guess we can't delete all that CP"
they'll go after anyone who hosts the network.
~~I'm fully against hunting down CP~~ (don't mind me, I did a dumb and failed sarcasm attempt due to distraction) and jailing everyone responsible, just like I'm fully against hunting down Isis and murdering every last fucking one of them in the most brutally efficient way our government can do.
But that wasn't the issue under discussion. The issue everyone is currently concerned about is censorship of non-illegal things, which the left has gone crazy on.
yeah, i don't think blockchain hosting is a practical solution to that problem.
It's not. But considering the way they've attacked Gab.com, it's the only solution we currently have barring making our own internet.
it doesn't stop the left from completing their domination of the conventional net, and they'll just enlist the federal government to destroy the blockchain net.
@JustTom ?! What did I miss about CP? Why are you not enthused by the idea of jailing all pedos and child abusers?
I was being sarcastic about that initial statement. And think I lost my train of thought mid-typing. XD
I think he might have misspoken.
Okay cause I just tabbed in and saw that and was disgusted
No idea of the context though
not sure what I was aiming for anymore but the context was that youtube has royally fucked up repeatedly and google is openly censoring anyone they disagree with, even putting out that "Good Censor" thing internally that later got leaked.
still not lvl 10 damit
!rank
bah
So we need something to compete. And since everything is being shut down by the left leaning internet currently, our options are Blockchain or Make our own internet.
we need proud company owners that wont sell thei companies for a few millions or billions to the bigger fishes
What we need is the government to step in, pick up that google "Good Censor" document, and say "heeey, this thing says you guys openly admit you're no longer just a Platform, but you're acting as a Publisher... Well, I guess that means you don't want those Section 230 protections anymore, Riiiiight? Make you a deal- Stop fucking censoring politics you disagree with and you can keep it, but you keep this up, and we're going to start prosecuting you to the fullest extent of the law. You've got 1 week to comply."
one of ben shapiro's people got suspended on twitter earlier today for a joke, so maybe they'll start getting the hint. the big problem we face is that the mainstream conservatives with connections in washington are generally unaffected by the censorship and therefore they doubt it's even happening.
or else they're nevertrumper types who the left doesn't want to censor.
Screenshot?
but generally i think it's just that those in power are unaffected and ignorant. like the heritage foundation types aren't having to deal with this or else the entire republican hierarchy would be screaming about it.
What was the joke?
Oh that's not even bad
It's hilarious though XD
ah, taht one again
We had that one?
Well, then about penis stealers?
STOP STEALING MY PENIS, YOU DICK LORDS!
