Thank you kindly for your response. Yes it never hurts to think, and to ask questions. Can you imagine if the wheel was square, and no one was allowed to wonder if it instead should be round. Asking questions helps find solutions to making things better. And for me that is always a win.

As for the censorship topic yes I full heartedly agree. This is how it looks at first:

Even the memo that comes with the censorship in and of itself admits to censorship, as it states "this post was hidden". Many people are under the misconception that censorship equals total eradication, but it actually does not. The mere act of hiding/concealing something, or a portion of something is the very definition of censorship.

The censorship resistant feature of Steem(it) was one of the main features that set Steem apart from the rest. I know this was a huge draw for people who stand for freedom of speech, and freedom of thought. Slowly over time Steem(it) has, one person at a time been erasing peoples comments from being seen all together. Did you know that if coininstant or fulltimegeek were to comment on your or my post, we would not be able to see it. We would have to know where to look to find the comments to be able to see or respond to them. One at a time they are erasing people. Of course their wallet still exists, and of course you can see what they say if you view it directly on the blockchain. But what average user is going to 'surf Steem' on the blockchain? Most average normal folks don't even know what a blockchain is, much less where to go to view what is on it!

Thanks again for your comment.

Cheers
