RE: Give Back Control over Content - Or?

I think you raise an important issue. Personally I think I would like to be able to delete my own content and also, even though I believe in decentralization, there are cases where I think control over what's published is justified i.e. when it's actually illegal (what should and what shouldn't be illegal is another discussion).

The line between censorship and legal control (if that's a correct term) is very thin but I think the discussion is needed.

Sort:  

I can't agree more. Maybe the control of content by others can be problematic, since when that is allowed, then censorship may happen. At Steemit we have the flag option, but the content is still visible. The content itself is not encrypted stored in the blockchain, ie everything and everybody can read it. Another social networks out there with blockchain encrypts the content first and provides the feature of permissions; That would be great for Steem blockchain to implement. When we get community features, this would be a great addition to that feature.

Yes, I do believe so as well! Always enjoy reading your posts and discuss! Very thought provocative :)

Thanks! :)
