Testing Ads on Steemit.com

I will stop using Steemit if it shows me ads.
I’ll simply use the websites or apps that show the same posts on Steem blockchain, but without ads.

    That is your right to do so. However, it costs money to run these websites and steemit.inc needs revenue in order to keep operating. Currently they are the largest sellers of steem in order to keep things running. That is not a sustainable model. Would you rather they continue to sell steem and help drive prices down or would you rather there be some ads from time to time? I know which one I would rather have...

    No. They should be raising money just like other businesses do, by going public and through small amounts of debt (if needed). In crypto space, going public is equivalent to an ICO. If they want to raise money from stock market, they should go for IPOs. Then, they can offer their own retail products or charge companies for their services (they can offer them support for integrating a few services with Steem blockchain or promote their posts, which would have the same effects as advertising, but it won’t collect personal data like google adsense). I oppose online advertising only because of privacy concerns. I don’t want my data to be fed to AI and governments/terrorists/hackers.

      Again, so by putting downward pressure on the price of steem by selling more... no thanks. It's time to generate revenue from business activities.

          Why do you whine when your government pisses you off? It’s to let them know about it. That’s exactly the reason for this blog post. They want people to express their opinions on the issue. You could have understood it, but then again, it’s not uncommon these days to find an idiot online.
