RE: Censorship gone awry on Reddit: the aftermath of our r/science AMA

in #science6 years ago

Hi Daniel. I stopped by to see if you made a post on the sci-hub Q&A session on Reddit, which you did! Yikes, didn't sound like it had gone as planned. So shadowbanned, huh? How misleading it is too since you were able to see your own comment, but other users did not. At least have the censorship universal without any hidden motives, like have some disclaimer of sorts. Instead, the site decided to censor content without its creator realizing. Sneaky.

I never paid much attention to censorship online, since I'm not an avid blogger. Since starting steemit though, I do realize the benefits of a decentralized platform. I wonder if more users will switch from Reddit to Steemit, since the rumor is that communities is supposed to be similar to reddit. Will be interesting to find out.

Sounds like you are working with some great individuals there at Penn. How funny that you are originally from Cali! I'm from So Cali but did live in the bay area for several years. Somehow, we both ended up on the east coast! Different way of life here, huh? ;)
