How do you know all the accounts on that list are actually there because of spam?
Why don't you go check them out one by one and come back to tell me more about it? That list applies to Steemit. Other frontends can choose whether or not they want to use it.
Just like with @thedarkoverlord, different frontends hid different items based on what they feel is appropriate. The difference between that and your traditional "centralized censorship" is people can still readily access what they did and they are not gone permanently.
In fact, I believe all frontends should be able to choose what they want to display based on the audience they are trying to attract.
I'll take your points seriously when someone actually receives the hardfork, aka actually gone, treatment.
Not to my understanding. This list is implemented via the nodes, and other front ends are using the nodes Steemit provides, according to the very limited grasp I have of this mechanism, and that is why Steempeak and Busy are also being impacted. That's why MIRA could solve the problem.
No they can't. People can't extract data from the blockchain anymore than they can build automobiles from scratch. People are functionally limited to publicly available front ends, just as much as they are commercially available cars.
Either trust is a vector for fraud or trustless mechanisms are extant. This list is not a trustless mechanism. You refer to the extant list as if that's the only possible implementation of this mechanism. I tried to point out some humorous examples of why that isn't reasonable, but you seem to have failed to grasp that fact. What if ISIS sent a few thugs to the home office and politely requested some additions or removals from the list? What if CNBC, Russia, or Israel buys Steemit.com? What if hackers attack that centralized single point of weakness?
The status quo won't persist indefinitely, and even if you trust the listmakers today, who makes that list is going to change, as is the list itself. You may not grasp that your trust of those making that list is a vector for fraud, but no victim of fraud ever did until after the fact. I don't distrust @ned to implement this mechanism without fraudulent intent. I just know that @ned isn't any more permanent than I, criminals will seek weaknesses to exploit, and only decentralization prevents centralized power from being projected.

Stop spreading misinformation. Have you tried entering their user name directly on the frontend? NO, YOU HAVE NOT.
Here, let me do it for you.

Come back when you can no longer see anything.
People like @iamgod and @thedarkoverlord are on completely different levels from that list you are citing.
You clearly do not have an understanding of what you are on about. Do not reply back.
I have seen multiple votes from these accounts that are not named, and they have become mystery votes. Ask @a-non-e-moose, who has necessary competence to explain this to you, and whom explained it to me when we were seeking to understand how those votes were cast.
Actions by those accounts are completely and utterly censored. Your actions conducting search aren't. I'm sorry you're incompetent to grasp the difference.
No, you are incompetent to even understand the concepts of "censorship resistance".
censorship resistance.Are the votes not cast? Are things not recorded to the blockchain? Did you not get the rewards? Did they not get the curation? They still freaking show up on the voting list when someone else votes for you. Anyone using a few of the dozen tools out there know you receive votes from FTG (and his hundreds of alts) from time to time. You are just grasping at mundane bs to appear knowledgeable on this matter.
Give it a rest. I have interactions with @a-non-e-moose from time to time. You are in no position to lecture me because YOU ARE WRONG and are desperately trying to tell me something as if you have unearthed a monumental discovery.
You know you talk a lot about things you have no understanding of. I am very glad you have revealed that, so I don't have to pay any more attention to you. Worse, you put words in my mouth. That's called projection, and it's a symptom of something worse.
Good luck with that.
I flag trash. You have received a flag.
Nice reversal. Keeping on dreaming about being a sage.
I come from a place where shit get censored. You merely whine about it.
