How transparancy protected Steemit from hackers

in steemit •  8 years ago  (edited)

And more than anything it's what got me to stick around and see what this is about. The complete transparency, the lack of ability to (correct me if I'm wrong) delete posts in order to censor things.

That is what is going to make this platform the best. Like Reddit but missing the things which have killed reddit: Censorship, Vote Manipulation, Mod Corruption, etc.... These are not possible on here as far as I can tell. THAT is going to breathe such life into the world of social media that society will start to rapidly change for the better. I haven't been this excited about new technology since Bitcoin.

Steemit wields the power of absolute free speech (well, maybe not absolute but incredibly close, I'm still not sure whether 'whales' can suppress or limit discussion).

Exciting, exciting times!

From what i remember reading there is no censorship at all. However, posts can be taken off the main trending or hot page for instance but they would still be accessible on the blockchain.
