Well that all changed in '90 when USSR fell, China filled a void w/ real $

and generally being a leftie previously i see a lot of chinese influence coming into the west

ill give you an example

YOu know pewdiepie?

no

he's a popular Youtuber , think he has 100 mil followers

anyway, china bought him

he promotes for the CCP Now to kids

comedianmm youtuber

well may be more than that now

cuz he is promoting DLIVE , funded by chinese communist... and pro censorship/tracking

so i guess he is a commie promoter

sounds like they are wanting to infiltrate any way they can

so that's just weird isn't it

i have a long debate with dlive's owner

chinese guy ofc

and back then i knew something was off, then i seen they went and got funding and paid pewdiepie Felix

OK so this pewdiepie is what....an opportunist , more or less, doesn't care the source or purpose?

i'm not sure what's going on

it's just concerned me and i lost a lot of sleep over this

ive seen certain things from the us govt about this too and it makes me worried

a general on Youtube said "social media is the 5th dimension of warfare"

so pinpoint you concern? Do you have the same concern with the Zuckerbergs of the world?

i have a lot of concern with zucker

Xs 60,000 I will add

for some weird reason he decided to come into my field of work and build a system of tyranny with the free software our community has worked so hard to free people

that's called Libra

Excuse me... I'd like to weigh in

It is a risk of open source. Do I assume you are open source developer?

i build free software yes

oh you answered

it's a risk in the governance design

Hey there @B2 join in

Hi @B2

so really with crypto a lot of attack surfaces exist to the system. like Sybil, like spam attacks, etc.

the way that people know crypto right now is through proof of work

it's the original decentralized system dates back to 1992

Proof of work, so it's different, really the code is ran and it's anarchy after that. no changes can be made without the hash rate majority agreeing

libre the glucose monitor?

ZUcker went with a system that is 100% decided by corporations like uber..... through masternodes and proof of stake

Hi there @B2
