I think there are some points that can be discussed or clarified:

1. Sharing part of a private chat without asking for permission is probably not going to be good for our future Discord chats ;) ...nothing wrong with the small image you shared, but next time just ask before posting.
2. Not sure if you did this on purpose or if you have not understood what I wrote in the chat ...either way ...going open source is not 'too risky' from a code point of view, but from a business point of view. I don't want people to fork the project or spin up multiple peakd/steempeak clones just because it's easy to do it when others have done all the hard work for you.
3. There is a recent post by Hive account@themarkymark that can easily show the benefit of those blacklists. Not saying that we have a perfect solution, but still a solution is needed.
4. There is no content hidden by peakd.com (marker yes, content no). Content is filtered in the Hivemind nodes using some hardcoded lists. This is not up to Hive account@peakd and you can always setup a full RPC node with Hivemind and don't use those lists if you want. Will be up to the users to select and use your node and this way all the content will be shown.
