And they will almost certainly release a social media platform which is built on the blockchain from the ground up in the next 6 months.
crypto is
A: complicated, so the majority you wanna convince with your message won't even know how to make it happen that they can see it
B: Ultimately the government can run a fear-campaign to get people to submit to a blockade on the internet to like what China has, where the only way you can get anywhere is if its accepted
Ok now this is epic
It will not be possible to censor them, since they are geographically distributed, and if one network producer cooperates with an authoritarian state they can be voted out.
It's designed by the guy who designed steemit.
Which runs dtube.
So then you can cut off parts of the world
on IPFS.
Well, not necessarily.
I mean,p there are cryptos which can be used even when states try to censor them.
But *some* decentralisation is better than the monopolies we currently have, no?
YouTube more like censor tube
you're gonna have to give me a lot more to go on than "decentralisation"
I mean, imagine we had a decentralised social media platform that could not be taken down by banks at this point.
I have.
I can't,
Cuz the banks are only the current go-to for that
companies can pressure ISP's to simply block social media
that isn't halal
Well yes. They could turn it all off.
But you're being fundamentalist.
Which is one of the problems in crypto, actually.
thats quite an accusation
I'm all for a better system,
But i'm not for yoloing to whatever is there, regardless of if it can work
People are fundamentalist about things, so shit on things that are *better* and *functional*.
Because they're not *perfect*
That's the SJWs to a T.
Explain to me, what the point is in giving money to a system that just gets blocked
In many cases, it can't be blocked.
I'm all for a better system, i want the ol "wild-west" internet back
"It can't be blocked" if i pull the plug it aint getting in
And to block them, you would have to cooperate across dozens of jurisdictions.
Or geoblock parts of the world.
What do you think Globalists do?
why does Merkel get her filthy paws in Polands jurisdictions?
They aren't doing that, yet.
Well, they're not geoblocking countries.
yet
cuz they don't have to
`companies can pressure ISP's to simply block social media`
About that, Telegram is still unblockable
They haven't managed to shutdown torrents, despite more than a decade of trying.
