While Steem may be a casualty of this war on freedom, it is a valuable warning of our vulnerability to censorship.

Please see my reply to the OP, which I have copy/pasted to several posts on this event to broaden it's reach to relevant parties.

Our lives themselves depend on free speech. Our wallets are inconsequential in comparison, and information regarding a possibly life-threatening pandemic is demonstrably being censored, putting our lives and our families lives at existential risk.

I am strongly urging action to rectify this problem at it's base, not at the blockchain level, which does not matter to our lives.

We are either free, or we are assets.

Without free speech, we aren't free.

Thanks!
