D.Tube – Resistant to Censorship
- verdverm 6y agoWhy is censorship resistance touted as a good thing without addressing the shortcomings? I understand the govt argument, but they never address fake news, child abuse videos, and copyright violations? Is this because they need to obfuscate this to be successful? It will eventually surface as an issue, so why not get out in front of this?
- michaelsbradley 6y agoThe point is, simply, no censorship. Communities (in the broadest online-global sense) can curate and filter content to the point that such content practically doesn't exist within a particular online community... but it does still exist and can be accessed, if you venture outside those filters and curation boundaries. Clearly, that raises a lot of important and complicated questions related to community values, ethics/morality, human vices and virtues, as well to local/state/global laws, but we're facing those questions in any case.
- verdverm 6y agoSorry, most of us in society want the censorship ability because of all the bad things that would be much worse content than this.
