Hello everyone, how are you doing today? Hope you are having a great time. This will be Week 204 Edition 01 of our Weekly Featured Content.
Made With Canva
So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun that we did not want it to end. We are currently on the first topic for this week, which is “TAKE THE BLAME”.
But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic, which was “ANONYMOUS”.
This topic was geared toward each member of the community, sharing their thoughts with us on the level of anonymity a person could have while being active in the digital space. We tried to see if it would be possible for anyone to have an active online presence with no one knowing who they are at all.
We got to see that in this day and age, it’s almost impossible because just about everything we do online is tracked. Provided the device has access to the internet, in one way or another, everybody can be tracked and revealed. That way, maintaining anonymity would be impossible. This was an enlightening topic, indeed.
For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w203e3 tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there, it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors, will be listed below.
Featured Contents
IS PRIVACY STILL POSSIBLE IN THE DIGITAL AGE by
This author told us that in this modern age of the internet and social media, just about anything is possible. And people can even make themselves disappear. There are tools to this effect, like VPNs and whatnot. But still, the best way to protect one’s privacy is by staying totally off social media. Abstinence will always be the best form of protection.
WHY STAYING ANONYMOUS ONLINE IS YOUR ULTIMATE POWER MOVE by
*For this author, he told us that staying anonymous is a privilege that has to be guarded jealously. And this also includes AI and all other modern tools that we give access to. And with time, staying anonymous will get even more difficult, especially with AI getting better and better at what it does. It’s a scary world, indeed.”
VALUE FIRST: WHEN ANONYMITY HELPS AND WHEN IT FAILS by
For this author, she told us that many times, people only care about the genuine value that is given, andnot the identity of the giver. So, if a person is anonymous but also giving real value, then it’s no big deal. But then, nothing lasts forever because eventually, the anonymity will be lost.
All of the above contents were supported by our official curation account lazy-panda with an extra amount. The first 3 authors will receive 100 ECENCY Points [ Sponsored By Ecency Team (
) ] and 1 $PANDAMINER each as a reward next Monday. These posts were selected because of their special attention to detail and how they followed the topic. There were a lot of good ones out there, but we just could not pick them all.
But then, we have some honorable mentions listed below:

Week 204 - Edition 01 Topic
TAKE THE BLAME
“Should inventors be blamed when their inventions are used for purposes other than what they were designed for? From drugs to weapons, and other things, many times we see people repurposing things that could have been used for good to do bad. Who takes the blame? The perpetrators or the people who made it possible?”
