"If Steemit has a mechanism in place to remove content already, problem solved."
Is what I said.
"Steemit has a mechanism in place to remove content, as in steemit.com."
Is what you said to correct me.
'sup?
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
You are still missing it. Steemit.com having a method in place to remove content does not mean the content is removed from the steem blockchain. The entire point of liberosist's post is that the witnesses who run servers, which hold the blockchain, are still in possession of illegal material even if steemit.com has removed it (meaning, is not displaying it) from one website. The content has not been removed from steem. steemit does not equal steem
I have grasped my failure to understand that @liberosist's statement that Steemit complied with DMCA takedowns by removing content did not mean they removed it from the blockchain, which I assumed was what he meant by 'removed'.
Data can be removed from the blockchain, as I pointed out in my last reply to @liberosist, with a hardfork.
Thanks for clarifying for me =)
