RE: Question about accessing Steem directly instead of using Steemit
The simple fact is that we wouldn't know if something has been censored unless there was a mechanism to show differences between the Steemit website and the Steem blockchain. The very idea that they can censor the site makes me want to find a way to view the direct feed without Steemit's involvment.
do you have any reason to think they are?
an analogy
You are a male, you are capable of rape,after all you do have the equipment.
is there any reason we should think you are a rapist?
That's a rather unintelligent analogy, but I'll humor you. If a woman didn't know or trust me, then it would be sensible to assume that I was a potential rapist and to maintain appropriate caution.
I do not know or necessarily trust the admins of this site. For all I know, even if they weren't actively removing content, they could be influencing visibility of posts to increase their own Steem profits.
Without an easy a means of independently accessing the forum directly from the blockchain, none of us would really know, would we?
if you feel that way..
I didn't know or trust you,
it's only sensible to assume that you are a potential bad guy
and for me to to maintain appropriate caution.
Don't let the door hit you on your way out.
