In Light Of Recent Events: Can We Reach A Consensus On Banning Abus...

Erin Morgenstern said once:

Life takes us to unexptected places sometimes. The future is never set in stone, remember that.

Well honestly I like the idea of a shapeable world.

The idea of decentralized environments is still pretty young. That implies that certain concepts about decentralization which were made by the very first pioneers of the area, don't necessarily need to turn out to be the real deal forever.

Don't we especially love the vision of that new world because it ensures giving power back to the people? Well powerful people of Steem, then let me ask you something:

What is more important to you? Ensuring a 100% decentralized world where everybody - both the good and the evil - can do whatever they want. Or creating a place where people can feel safe, where they are provided with the relevant tools to protect their freedom and their property?

Those of you who've been reading my yesterday's blog will know that I have a bone to pick with the user @sami100.

He didn't only steal my money but also the money of several other members of this community. I'm definitely not going to accept this situation.

Why should we vehemently allow these people to be part of our seminal community? Just because this is how decentralization has to be?

Aren't WE the ones who shape the concept of decentralization in the way we want it to be? Like we've done it over and over again through several hardforks?

Wouldn't we be even more decentralized if we agreed - trough consensus - that we don't want to be such users being part of this place?

Wouldn't this be the actually advanced and cool form of decentralization everybody would wanna participate in?

I mean if can prove 100% that users as @sami100 are only here to abuse others - and we can definitely prove it thanks to all the data stored in the blockchain - then why wouldn't we do anything in order to protect our community from such gangsters?

There is a way to exclude criminals from the blockchain: through a hardfork. Check my video on @dlive in order to know more. And then: let's talk about it!

The comment section is yours :-)

Much love,
