Here it is again, something that I have been stating for quite a while now:

"Each front end is privately owned and as such should be responsible for its own management and business. While it would be nice to have a website on which all the items posted onto the Steem blockchain are listed, this has shown to be impossible when we had that scenario with The US Government requesting certain posts from a certain someone be removed or made invisible. Jurisdiction does apply.
So, at the end of the day, the front end owners need to ensure that their front end is managed as a unique website, with only the items uploaded to the blockchain via their website. Not only for legal reasons, but also for the future of Steem."

If you want further elaboration on this, I am more than willing and able to do so and argue/defend each and every point made, to the point where I literally quote examples in which sites/businesses have gone bankrupt for doing things any other way.

What most people don't seem to understand and most of those who claim that they "do not understand" in fact just don't want to accept is the reality of the world in which we live in.

Each front end needs to be responsible for the content it has up on the net.

If we keep mixing apples and oranges as we have been doing to date, we will end up just another reference note on some Wiki page about something that once existed.

I don't know how to say this in any milder manner.

There it is.

The blockchain is not the place to do the policing!

as at the end of the day, it all comes down to the responsibilities of each and every business entity that owns the front end from which the content originates from and likewise the responsibility of each and every front end that displays it. (dot, full stop, period, the end)

Cheers.
