Davidpakman post on steem, world alternative media Josh, Luke we are change. Styx.
the internet
Also jimmy Dore... Even him on steem
So you tell me if it's a fad.
The internet isn't just a digital universe you access through a computer. Part of it is the cables that run from your house, and the signal that bounces from your phone.
Such a fad my words are immortalized in blocks forever.
Lmao
I love the fud and doubt.
You put a LOT of naive stock in the permanence of access.
Is there a future for it? Very likely.
But that future isn't without a serious potential of failure and challenge.
Yeah and I run nodes and I have built my network locally to sustain for years.
200gb ram +
Till the last node stands . I shall access .
Isn't that a beautiful system of concensus ?
well lets suggest some realistic risks then
And if those nodes get cut off from the world, what good does that do?
@RyeNorth most currency is digital now
Oh, I know.
It troubles me.
times change
It hasn't happend in 10 years, so it will never happen. right?
how is losing access any different than a bank freezing your account? except you can find access to the internet, even if its hard. bank freezes your account? you are done.
what exactly is it that can happen?
@NativeInterface basically losing internet access forever
@Grenade123 I don't understand how I'm losing access.
@Graylan | gray00 if you lose internet access
That is how you are naive.
yeah if we permanently lose internet we may be in even bigger trouble than being poor
lose connection to your wallet and the chain
nodes don't work if the packets cannot be delivered because ICANN or the ISP refuses to do so
I have backup nodes. Different internet providers . As the others do.
Agreed, but it's not a thing that's impossible to happen.
counldnt you just tunnel
@Graylan | gray00 thats not the point, the point is if you lose access.
lets look at people who have been cut off from internet then
think of if suddenly a bitcoin node cannot get packets at all because their IP address is blacklisted
Yeah and if bank of America gets hacked you lose your money too.
is it even possible by the way to completely cut someone off and they have no way to gain access at all?
indeed my point
