RE: Reddit Bans /r/DarkNetMarkets - Chance For Steemit to Show Power of Decentralization

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

https://www.reddit.com/r/gundeals/ got banned

https://np.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/8649ne/reddit_bans_using_reddit_as_a_marketplace_or_to/

Here's the full list list

All this Facebook, Youtube, Google, reddit drama is great for Steem!

Sort:  

With every ban they only encourage the decline of their own centralized systems.

Correct me if I am mistaken but as far as I know there is no law that obliges any US based internet company to delete free speech off of their platform simply because it doesn't conform to some kind of social standards that nobody even knows who defined and what the standard is.
I compare it to two people having a discussion and one of them sticking his hand on the others mouth because he doesn't like what is being said, he has no damn right to do that and you best believe that can result in a violent altercation.

sorry but copyright take downs will be one way to take down stuff, steemit inc has had to take down just like one page of stuff its a short list maybe a few dozen posts and their all bollywood movie links and reposted pictures stolen from some photographer who sued steemit inc pissed that someone else was getting paid off their work'

But yeah the blockchin wioll always hold the info so u can just make ur own front end

now the witnesses CAN refuse to deal with certain info but you can ALWAYS do this on Golos hahaha or make a steem fork that is all about hosting sketchy darknet market stuff :D

Yes, Yes it is!

Damn Diggity Doos Doggle! Spread the WORD!

Yes when steem communities finally comes out we can have https://steemit.com/darknetmarkets ad all the other banned subreddits :D haha it will bring so many problems to steemit

no. they can't. not on a highly visible publicly accessible blockchain. FOSTA is in legal terms vague and overly broad. its a fucking sourge to free expression and horrible legislation. watch the admin machine spin up in high gear and the angle workers make a fuck ton... again. No to censorship No to banning No to prohibition PERIOD. but until we learn this its going to get far worse.

Agreed, this year more people will move from all these platforms. Mastodon is an interesting micro-blogging solution I am looking at, would like to find a solution that has tokenization built in.
