Allowing any person to comment is the most freedom you can give people. If people are free to comment whatever they want and they choose to publish crap then that's just a commentary on human nature, not the tool.
- ethbr1 2y agoAll scenarios where anyone can comment anything are not equal, though. F.ex. are anonymous comments allowed? To some degree the platform defines the content it generates.
- lrvick 2y agoThere exist no practical methods to prevent anonymous commentary on the internet. If you do not accept the potential of being in a car crash, don't get in a car. If you are not accept the potential of strangers saying mean things to you on the internet, don't talk to strangers on the internet. That is not victim blaming. It is threat modeling. We can opine about how nice it would be to live in a world where we could keep all dangerous drivers off the road and all mean people off the internet, but we won't see major changes here for another century, so I don't advise waiting on those to live your life.
