That's great that you live in a free country that allows you to host your own blog. If you lived in China and your blog was critical of the Chinese government you'd soon see how easy it is for your blog to be shut down. Decentralization is the antidote to totalitarian creep. Sure it's only a few countries that are authoritarian today, what happens if most of the world goes that way? Will your blog still be safe then? IRT leaked nudes - The feeds in scuttlebutt are immutable but blobs of data are not. If only you and your friends have a blob, and you request them to delete it and they do so, then no one else will be able to retrieve it or access it ever again because no one has a copy. This is the same as if the nudes were leaked any other way online. Others will still see that you posted a blob because it's hash is in your immutable feed, but they won't be able to retrieve it.
