HAS THE ERA OF DECENTRALIZATION STARTED? #FACEBOOKBREACH
Facebook really is having a bloodbath now. It is getting crushed in the stock market, shareholders are going nuts.
What actually made its market price to plunge such rapidly ??
One of the partner's of Facebook joined hands with Cambridge Analytica(An IT service management company) to breach data of millions of Facebook users. This duo influenced US voters by checking people's profile and sending appropriate psychological advertisements to swing US elections.
This is what eventually happens with all the centralized communities. I'm not completely antagonistic towards Facebook, indeed it offered us many benefits but breaching people's privacy is completely unacceptable. Centralized communities either sell their people's privacy or doesn't put any efforts to secure it.
This incident is captivating people's eye towards decentralization and it's the time to promote our love. All the data stored in the blockchain is decentralized. Additionally, decentralized platforms like Steemit is offering earnings to people. Many are making fortunes from this platform.
Facebook's market value plunged down drastically and it has become just double of crypto market's value. Maybe we could expect that in a few months crypto rises and both become parallel in market value.
It's time to promote STEEMIT and decentralization !!! Anyways my hands always tend to Steemit than any other social media. Let's see what happens.
What's your opinion? Is the tree of centralization started to get uprooted?
You're right on this one! Decentralization is the only logical step, especially since people are tired of giving large companies their private info to sell on a whim.
yeah, people really got exhausted by the false promises made by the companies. Everyone is seeking a change. Giving our information to some companies is just like giving them the stick to hit on our backs. Thanks for stopping by brother :).
Please convey this message to others. SMARTSTEEM has some technical problem. It many times does not vote and does not return your money. But the worst part of the story is that if you ask for return of your money, an account known as clvr will start attacking you. Whenever you use any bot and get some vote, this clvr will downvote you and take out a big portion from that. clvr will trace whenever you get some return from any bot and use appropriate voting weight of downvote so that most portion of your return is wiped out. Then you have no other option than to abandon that account and start a new steemit account. But, when you do that, be very careful that you should not do any type of transaction with the new account. clvr is clever enough to find that it is your new account and will start attacking that account too. Anyway, your infected accounts can be safely used to hold your SP and upvote to earn curation rewards. THEREALWOLF is the person who will start reacting to you in case you complain about your loss.
The best option is that, those people who lose the transferred money to SMARTSTEEM and does not get it returned, should not ask them and should not complain so that at least your account will be safe from the attack of clvr. Just forget that money. I have lost my 3 accounts, but my other accounts are safe because I take care to avoid any type of transaction or up-voting or similarity of posts between the affected and not-affected accounts.
