> With web3, there is no deplatforming, no moderation, no accountability A collection of NFTs got deplatformed, moderated, and even accepted accountability yes

  That is what the reality will be. But the image that is being communicated is Web3 is decentralised and impervious to the kinds of moderation we have today.

  That only works because of the “web2” aspects of the current NFT implementation. The actual content is simply hosted on a traditional web2 service. Once the data moves to a distributed store, it becomes a much more intractable problem that depends on a lot of traditional “centralized” parties. Random network participants will become liable in lawsuits for storing/replicating blocks of data, which will lead to all sorts of compliance issues, which will result in what we have today: centralized services operated by experts on behalf of the lay customer. So, either nothing changes, or something changes. You can’t have it both ways.

  From the article in that thread: > “We were not aware of the likeness laws in NFTs as the market is not regulated,” the post reads. Hahahahaha. This is the dumbest excuse, you are not immune to existing rules just “because crypto”. The likened laws don’t need to mention crypto specifically to apply, did they even stop to think for a single second before they did this? If the crypto community wants to be taken seriously and not constantly regarded as a joke, they ought to do themselves a favour and at least try to be a bit competent.
