That would only drive things more toward censorship-resistant blockchain-based app stores after Google and Apple's behavior with apps in Hong Kong.

- lucb1e 7y ago> censorship-resistant blockchain-based app stores Except that the word blockchain is entirely unnecessary here. How would IPFS not suffice? Or Bittorrent? Or Telegram itself. Unless no country on earth is willing to host X, X can host somewhere. This "X" can be Telegram itself or the app store that it is on. You make blockchain sound like magic pixie dust, but what the word means is something like git (see the Wikipedia page about it for a definition), not "magic pixie dust that makes something unblockable".
- Kinnard 7y agoIPFS might suffice, it might not. It also does happen to be Blockchain based . . . Sounds like you're expressing cynicism more than an alternative pathway for achieving censorship-resistant blockchain-based app stores
- htfu 7y agoNo, it's not blockchain based.
- skinnymuch 7y agoHow is IPFS blockchain based?
