But you are entitled to your opinion.

I gave mine.

the thing about "crypto" i don't buy is the simple rule

"If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't"

I despise bitcoin.

and i do understand it, i program for a living

its why i don't have faith in it

You don't appear to, whatever you do.

cuz i don't agree with your glorious view of crypto?

But hey, get your pitchfork ready.

That's preferable to other ways of improving censorship *resistance*.

there will be billions invested to sell "web 3.0" to the gullible masses

can you also make better arguments than ad-hominems?

So far you've accused me of being a Fundamentalist, an accelarationist and a pitch-forking witch hunter

all cuz i said "I don't buy it based on what you've told me"

where "web 3.0" is some sort of crypto / blockchain bs that tracks everyone, everywhere

And you've called me a shill, without understanding what you're talking about.

this is already underway

i never said that

@paradigm Precisely.

It is already underway.

and i do understand it, but i'm not gonna bother proving to you cuz its the internet, for all i know you're Obama, and i'm a shoe-salesman

And if it is in the wrong hands (i.e. not everyone's, i.e. not decventralised) we're fucked. Permanently.

You clearly don't.

Sorry.,

thats not an argument

Yes it is.

pigeon carrier!

It is an argument that you didn't, and evidently still don't, understand the solutions being proposed to the problem of censorship./

>>> we had the solution, years ago - we spent billions to kill it

Ok.

So what do you all propose?

web 2.0 effectively concentrated control in very few hands

heres your argument
"You're obviously too dumb to understand what I an enlightened person says, so i don't have to bother explaining my sales-pitch to you"

that was COSTLY

facebook, alone, burned 600 million before turning a profit

How to we ensure that people like Tim Pool, one of the few remaining honest journalists, is not financially censored by the current monopolies?

lol, TCP/IP itself used to be hyped as censorship-resistant.

youtube, netflix, twitter, etc. burned more

My argument isn't that you're dumb. Although you may be. It's that you don'

there you go

the financial aspects will have to be the second phase

t (want to) understand.
