Forum nº1
Privacy vs. Transparency
The following debate will be open based on the post: https://steemit.com/steemit/@behindsteemit/behind-steemit-5-free-steemit-censorship-everywhere in which evidence was presented about the controversy caused by the possibility that regular Steemit users could have access to all the information about what happens in the Steem blockchain.
If we take a look into the posts uploaded to this account, we can see a rise in the number of transfers of doubtful nature, alternative accounts and massive voting circles, whose main problem is the fact that they're seem to be missing pieces in a puzzle that would allow us to understand how a certain situation was reached, this, consequently, produces some uncertainty in a large number of users. What would happen if all this information is set free to the regular user? Would a network of money flowing behind the scenes be unmasked? Could the possibility of editing or hiding this information take us away from the free platform that was once promised to us?
Although from the perspective already stated, obtaining an absolute level of transparency seems to be quite necessary, we must also think about the implication that this would have for the ordinary user, since we would lose the ability to protect the privacy of our particular accounts within sensitive issues that can generate disrespectful reactions, which would be exposed to anyone who wants to access them. How willing would we be to lose the ability to protect our privacy in exchange of getting all the information about what happens behind Steemit? What could be the point of balance between our privacy and the integrity of the platform? At what point do the movements or transactions of a user become a matter of the community in general? and even more, at what point do they become deprived within a platform whose foundation is freedom of expression?
We wait for your comments.
- This is the beginning of a serie of forums, more is for coming, we hope that you could take part in the work to preserve the integrity of our comunity through your ideas and arguments .
