my prediction is that all right-leaning political content creators will be dealing solely in crypto within 10 years

2018-12-23 06:18:29 UTC  

Patreon will be killed, subscribestar will be killed and whatever Jordan Peterson is coming up with will be killed

2018-12-23 06:19:13 UTC  

Yeah, but the one Peterson is working on will unveil who's really behind the deplatforming

2018-12-23 06:19:15 UTC  

Probably gonna happen

2018-12-23 06:19:41 UTC  

On the other hand, Jordan isn't afraid of bringing lawyers into this

2018-12-23 06:19:45 UTC  

won't matter, that will be a sock puppet at best

2018-12-23 06:20:12 UTC  

I.... don't know what you're saying but okay

2018-12-23 06:20:37 UTC  

There's literally *one* barrier at this new level, and that is Visa/MasterCard

2018-12-23 06:20:41 UTC  

meaning whoever gets outed as being the deplatformer will be no one of consequence

2018-12-23 06:21:17 UTC  

I guess you haven't heard how far he wants to go with it

2018-12-23 06:21:26 UTC  

how far ?

2018-12-23 06:21:38 UTC  

Like, replacing stripe/Paypal

2018-12-23 06:21:46 UTC  

All DIY in house

2018-12-23 06:22:30 UTC  

But guess who is friends with the Intellectual Dark web? <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

2018-12-23 06:22:41 UTC  

who

2018-12-23 06:22:52 UTC  

Peter Thiel, the original creator of PayPal

2018-12-23 06:24:07 UTC  

will probably be crypto friendly then

2018-12-23 06:26:42 UTC  

well, whatever it ends up being, if it's tied in any way to the traditional banks and payment processors then it won't work

2018-12-23 06:27:25 UTC  

Thing is, the higher up you go, the more regulation you have. Eventually you reach a point where the company has no choice but to service you

2018-12-23 06:27:45 UTC  

one problem I could see then would be the site getting gabbed

2018-12-23 06:28:24 UTC  

it would have to be soup-to-nuts DIY from the ground up like 1998 style shit

2018-12-23 06:28:52 UTC  

Or exist entirely on the blockchain/hyperchain

2018-12-23 06:30:23 UTC  

right, maybe a use-case for storj or something

2018-12-23 06:35:25 UTC  

Or there's the 'new' internet

2018-12-23 06:35:37 UTC  

I still don't know how it's used

2018-12-23 06:35:45 UTC  

I should probably read more about that

2018-12-23 06:35:55 UTC  

I heard of it, but I'm with you - no idea how it's used

2018-12-23 06:37:07 UTC  

I think all user data is linked to the user account, which is singular/universal across all sites, and your account is 'hosted' by a server which serves your data on request of a particular site

2018-12-23 06:37:57 UTC  

So basically, cloud based meme folders, where you hotlink your stuff instead of uploading it

2018-12-23 06:38:49 UTC  

not sure how i feel about the singular/universal part

2018-12-23 06:39:11 UTC  

It's not like a replacement

2018-12-23 06:39:41 UTC  

Imagine like the split between image boards and social media

2018-12-23 06:39:57 UTC  

But platforms can't really get rid of you anymore

2018-12-23 06:40:54 UTC  

Just 'ban' you, but they have no inherent advantage of owning a database to control, so there's more competition of platforms

2018-12-23 06:41:53 UTC  

oh that would definitely be a no-no for the elites

2018-12-23 06:42:44 UTC  

I think Sargon's experience with Patreon might be an indicator that they only let you live as long as you aren't big enough to be a threat - once you cross that line you're done

2018-12-23 06:57:30 UTC  

Not sure how i feel about the 'at request of the site' part moreso

2018-12-23 07:10:15 UTC  

I'm writing what I think it is they're trying to do. Take it with a grain of salt.

I'm fairly confident you can select what info is given to them. Kind of like sharing a google doc or whatever? Does that makes sense?

2018-12-23 07:10:56 UTC  

Like, you would 'delete' a social media account by taking away the hotlinking rights to the site via your end

2018-12-23 07:15:09 UTC  

By 'request' I meant like "Oh, someone wants to know who Fitz is. Better pull up his bio...", and then 'request' it from the server your account is hosted on
