RE: @informationwar is now curating on Weku with a nice 200k delegation!
Not a lot which is kind of scary.
Let me be clear, I wouldn't recommend anyone buy this token now. I think folks should sign up for a free account though.
Why? Why send people into an obvious exit scam. Who is weku anyway? Do you know? Do you realize that you're vetting something that you have no idea about, zilch, nada, and if the service is free..
You are the product.
They need as many idiots as they can possibly get to make it appear like they are legitimate, instead of being forthcoming and saying who they are, what their intentions are and why should anyone waste time on a clone that stinks of exit scam, they just need to "look at this awesome sweet service FOR FREE".
I told papa pepper and another person on there, back in September/October last year, that if the service is free, you are the product. You think that no witnesses (last time there was only one.. How much do you want to wager that there is still only one..) isn't a gigantic red flag? Look up my account on there, @bah (1 a not 2 like on here) and see some of the nonsense others brought to my attention back then.

The service is free, the sign up is free on weku as well(no phone number needed). They delegate 200 weku power to everyone who signs up so you can post/comment.
If you are worried about your own security that is why you would use TOR or a VPN or something.
@richq11 is one of the longest serving members of @informationwar and is part of the Weku team and does work for them.
Weku is interesting because they don't have the same problems Steemit does(aka bag whales with tons of SP).
Lol you don't think they have the same problem? Obviously you don't know who has the bag over there and how much they are holding. I asked who they are, obviously you don't know that either but you jump right in to vett them, more or less.
"if the service is free, you are the product".

I never said anything about richq, I never said that you or him works for weku, I never said anything about being worried about security, and there was absolutely nothing that implied any of that nonsense. Check your eyes.
Bring in all the traffic you can to an obvious exit scam, you can always act unsurprised when they make for the door and put up your shoulders saying "well it's not like dozens of people didn't say the same thing, and what did they take anyway.."

Lmao.
My response to papa, 9 months ago:
Papa, I'm disappointed in your disregard for the insurmountable issues that are easily discovered.
fool me once, shame on you..
I've confronted one of the people, @dzoelx, about the hack\scam @gbenga account @dpend pointed out to me. From the exchange, what I've understood, is that the millions weku that user got, are "locked up" for distribution. That's a blatant lie, because clearly the user is powering down, and continues to "bestow" 14k votes on comments to this day, and @dzoelx says that abuse took place before weku even launched, yet they are trying to get us to believe, that the abuse will be "distributed" back to the community, when like you mentioned, such abuse could and should obviously be removed completely, and that's as if we're too dimwited to recognize that they are saying that they trust the user which abused the system to garner a large portion of the stake, to turn around and act benovelent.
fool me twice, shame on me
The whole free weku ought to be meet with the very same skepticism any free beer offer ought to be considered with. The saying goes that if the service is free, you are the product. Are you, Papa, the product?
The fish stinks from head to tail, not the other way around.
The biggest warning sign is in taking a service which was developed to bring about Decentralized Governance through the Open Source license and turning it completely on it's head as a closed source, completely centralized platform. There's only one witness and the developers as in plural, are ok with the vulnerability such a set-up offers, but as you applaud such incredible lack of security, you think that allowing these people to dictate who can and who can't belong in the community is a plus and you haven't any reservations for such insipid setup?
All scams and cons rely on our greed. If it's too good to be true, it probably is. Here you have all those elements, a list of "free money" and "sign up bonuses" to entice people to look past the complete, total lack of effort at a copypaste of Steem, and add some "dealing with the scammers" to appease the obvious lack of security and short sightedness and to give the illusion of fairness, yet behind that thin veneer the reality of the place is oozing out and no amount of " still in beta" will convince me because they essentially have copy pasted something that works and changed one graphic, and all they need now is enough fools to "bitconnnnnnnnnnnnnnect" this place so that once it's populated they can simply delete and remove all evidence of concern or distrust without leaving a trace and in turn gain the appearance of credibility so that the fools with money can pour into the dream of fur the content creators, muh community building.
I could spell it out a million times but the hard part is trying to be heard by people who are so easily enticed with stories of riches, which is what the majority of dialogue on here revolves around, despite that so many are so greedy they won't even upvote each other.

This place is fundamentally broken and no amount of free beer will hide it, that is untill they scrub all these comments away which would be too convenient and quite effortless. As far as I'm concerned, they broke the working platform in their efforts to copy paste it, and instead of focusing on actually replicating something that works, they've went ahead with appeasing people's greed without any sense of the long term effects and disguised in the innuendo of "community building
The entire goal of the Informationwar Project is to get our posts/blogs/comments/videos onto blockchains so that they cannot be deleted. Building a "library of Alexandria" if you will.
There have been a lot of hacks involving Steem and other things as well.
You can feel free to criticize us for using Weku/Busy/Palnet/Steem/Steempeak and whatever you want. It still doesn't change the fact of our goals. Our goals being putting up the counter to the MSM lies, and our stuff is on many and multiple blockchains making it almost impossible to censor.
If you don't want to buy any Weku or use it then don't, same with Steem or Palnet.
Yeah I understand your goals, by any means necessary right? If that means bringing traffic to a site that has absolutely nothing to do with blockchain, but which is nonetheless pandering to being blockchain, that's fine right?
How many witnesses are there on weku?
When was steem ever hacked like weku "claims"?
Not only there is absolutely nothing like what is going on weku (millions of weku/per spam comments, 78 rep being made by a dozen votes on comments, no witnesses, no development, regression of a tried and tested system, blatant abuse, almost no one votes for anyone but themselves), but there never was anything that could even compare.
I wonder "when" it'll be a good time to buy "weku"? Lol

I never said by any means necessary. If you have more information links to send by all means please do.
What do you think it means to encourage people to join a fake ass "blockchain" without any due diligence? Justifiable ends. What more links you want lol? That isn't enough, you can excuse or avoid the obviousness of the shenanigans that go on there?
