Political system is a huge one and could go either way. 1 party rule can make quick, bold changes for better or for worse. In the US, we're stuck with slower change again for better or worse.

Brilliant UI. What about contrarian nodes though? I insist on meditating and not drinking even though my connections around me do the opposite. It feels almost like a challenge and I wonder if they all joined me if I'd feel less attach

If you're trying to make money (for profit or not), your actions will most likely need to be palatable and understood by those willing to give you money as you mentioned. I'm not sure there's a way around that, but I do think

Can a TLD have ToS to revoke a domain being used for spam? Otherwise, after sufficiently ruining .fun, I'm sure the spam crowd will just move on to the next cheap TLD until that one gets saturated and so on.

This is a huge complaint of those new to Go and touted as a benefit from those who still use it. Being explicit is a double edge sword. It requires more typing, but there's also no don't about what the code is doing.
