@Atkins dont read much?

2018-06-30 17:09:22 UTC  

so you want a centralized power with AI to decide who is good and bad

2018-06-30 17:09:31 UTC  

no. i want decentralized. trustless system, that is transparent. like ipfs

2018-06-30 17:09:33 UTC  

😄

2018-06-30 17:09:57 UTC  

Centralized evil is just as evil as decentralized evil.

2018-06-30 17:10:08 UTC  

This system doesn't help anything.

2018-06-30 17:10:13 UTC  

how is decentralized evil?

2018-06-30 17:10:17 UTC  

how is centralized evil?

2018-06-30 17:10:20 UTC  

evil is a bullshit word

2018-06-30 17:10:43 UTC  

See saying "evil is a bullshit word" makes me think that you are amoral and want this network for evil reasons.

2018-06-30 17:10:52 UTC  

@Atkins already has helped people globally

2018-06-30 17:11:18 UTC  

lmfao

2018-06-30 17:11:20 UTC  

wont help anyone

2018-06-30 17:12:46 UTC  

If Catalan can use this network to sidestep a legal block, could not other people do the same? People with goals you think are immoral?

2018-06-30 17:13:21 UTC  

how about those in venezuela who would have starved to death without ipfs?

2018-06-30 17:13:32 UTC  

do you even know about them? have you talk to them

2018-06-30 17:14:01 UTC  

plenty from venezuela are using IPFS , steem, etc.. to eat. feed their family

2018-06-30 17:14:13 UTC  

wont help anyone tho lmfao

2018-06-30 17:14:14 UTC  

Yes, great. What about people using the same tools for evil?

2018-06-30 17:19:03 UTC  

Its the ppl who is responsible not the tools

2018-06-30 17:38:59 UTC  

@Atkins first off, while there are many things that almost everyone believes is wrong, the terms good and evil, moral or immoral are subjective. Your argument is the same argument used against free speech. "Well yeah, government censoring is bad, but i mean, nazis are also just as bad, so lets stick with censoring speech." You will never get rid of pedos. Just because you don't seen them doesn't mean they are not already there. decartelizing won't make there suddenly be more pedos. But they would feel safe enough to be more open about it, meaning you can identify them, and figure out how to deal with them.

2018-06-30 17:41:08 UTC  

seems like a poor excuse, since its the swedish team that made it happen 😂

2018-06-30 18:05:55 UTC  

@Grenade123 I generally dislike naïve techno-utopianism that only sees the good uses for new technology without giving any thought to the bad. That attitude has given us plenty of grief in the past, and as technology becomes more and more powerful it'll give us plenty more grief in the future.

2018-06-30 18:06:57 UTC  

That doesn't mean we shouldn't make new technology; that just means we need to design new technology while constantly thinking of how it can be abused.

2018-06-30 18:07:18 UTC  

you will never make a tool that will not be abused

2018-06-30 18:07:51 UTC  

So all attempts to mitigate abuse should be abandoned?

2018-06-30 18:08:52 UTC  

I think he means even if you consider possible means of abuse, people will find NEW ways

2018-06-30 18:08:58 UTC  

^

2018-06-30 18:09:16 UTC  

if you want to mitigate abuse entirely, the easiest way is to just not make it

2018-06-30 18:09:35 UTC  

Sure. But IPFS doesn't appear to have taken ANY steps to address how their system can be abused..

2018-06-30 18:10:08 UTC  

Techno-utopians just seem to shrug and say whatever fuck da poleese.

2018-06-30 18:12:31 UTC  

no, its more like stop being lazy and deal with the problem, not hide the problem by giving unbelievable power to small groups of people.

2018-06-30 18:12:40 UTC  

people are the problem, not the tools

2018-06-30 18:14:16 UTC  

@Atkins you know what the dark web is?

2018-06-30 18:17:33 UTC  

Yes I know what Tor is.

2018-06-30 18:17:49 UTC  

And don't tell me that Tor isn't used almost entirely by criminals.

2018-06-30 18:18:17 UTC  

The only people using Tor other than criminals are feds.
