Don't be the bull dog that can't bark nor bite.- @uyobong (27/01/2021)
It's very open that the world leaders and the rich are all out to end #freespeech which has been labelled as a newtech tool for war and terrorism. While it has a face of Democrats versus Republican, it's actually the move to keep the common man as a slave forever. After the ban of President Donald Trump's personal accounts on Facebook and Twitter, the threat is taken to it's highs that anyone could be muzzled and nothing happens.
This is why they really hate decentralization and decentralized socialmnedia where everyone has the right to freedom of expression. The rich wants to get richer and leave the poor top be poorer. Cryptocurrency cannot allow that as it limits the control of other people's money as obtainable in the traditional financial institution. This is why the fight is emerging. It's more than political.
I don't want to be the bull dog that cannot bark nor bite. If the bull dog that was meant to serve as the security is muzzled from eating, then, it'll fail to live out its role as a security animal. In the last few months, the only way that the masses were able to lend a voice in governance was through social media and Facebook as well as Twitter were very crucial. The #EndSars, #EndBadGovernance and #EndPoliceBrutality campaigns which for once showed the power of a united people against the "few" in governance was successful through social media.
Sad, Ugande in the last few weeks expressed another depth in bad governance by shutting down internet during its presidential; elections to prevent the masses from sharing their thoughts and experience on socialmedia. Again showing how much the men in power are afraid of a united socialmedia. With the realization of the import of socialmedia in today's governance, the infiltration in the ranks of Big Tech Media calls for concern as per the hope of the common man and how he'll make his ideas count in the society.
The bull dog has been muzzled and there's much more that would follow - more looting of public funds, more poor governance, more fraud, more misappropriation of funds and lots more and no one would speak up. The new dawn for journalism via socialmedia has been crippled to it's darkest point with freespeech censorship in social media.
They'll Muzzle your sales too
We all can attest to the fact that socialmedia had given a new look to brand and product marketing and this has led to more sales and better patronage of services across the globe. Now that censorship is the order of the day what do you think would happen to your sales?
Yes, it's gonna go beyond speech censorship to product sales censorship based on frivolous reasons as we hear. Through this link, you'll read a report that the Coalition for a Safer Web, a nonprofit founded by an ex-US ambassador, has sued Apple, demanding it deletes Telegram from its store, arguing that the app is being used to “incite extreme violence” ahead of the inauguration. Telegram has been a great place for marketing of heavy products (in media size) that can't be acommodated on Facebook and Twitter and now there is a threat for Apple users to lose out from the market.
Helen Buyniski holds valid in here recent report that the media establishment has declared a holy war against free speech. freedom to express oneself was once the bedrock of US society, but now it faces a redefinition into something more convenient – or oblivion.
In the past few weeks, establishment outlets from the New York Times to NBC to the Independent have issued calls for the very idea of “freedom of speech” to be rethought – or better yet, scrapped altogether – because it is no longer in harmony with modern society. This is a tacit admission that the media establishment’s own opinions can’t compete in the marketplace of ideas, and that, despite their best efforts, they can’t censor their way out. source
All Hope Isn't gone
I am so personally happy that I discovered Hive which has been a base of my socialmedia activities and it comes with benefits. Yes, with the growing number of new creations on Hive blockchain with unique cases to solve life challenges, it is crucial to see that there is an alternative to the Big Media and now is the right time to join. Beyond being free of censorship, value for data, which is the new "gold" can be drawn from decentralized socialmedia.
While over the the last three years, we've been writing long posts on Hive blockchain which negates the culture of socialmedia. Our promised #BlankProject on the @LeoFinance community which leverages the Hive blockchain technology would be brought live in few weeks from today. It's a microblogging option which would allow users to "Tweet" on Hive while enjoying the super benefits of immutability as well as earning for your time and content.
The new project would be a Twitterkiller project and it would be a more safe place to air #freespeech as well as sell your products. I'm certain that other projects like @Clicktrackprofits and @hivelist which are concerned with business, affiliate marketing and entrepreneurship would have a way of linking to the microblogging feature of LeoFinance soon. With that, we'll have a more open field for sales and marketing of products in a censorship-free socialmedia.
