All of your content will be available on the blockchain and will be visible to those who want to see it (unless we are required by law to take it down).
So they admit the whales (which includes Steemit Inc.) control the Steem blockchain and thus it is not a decentralized, permissionless, resilient database.
No. We only control steemit, not steem.
The blockchain Steem is controlled by proof-of-stake which elects the delegates (aka witnesses) in your DPoS consensus algorithm which decides which content is validated. Afaik, you (Daniel Larimer aka @dan), Ned Scott (@ned), and Steemit Inc (of which Ned is the CEO) control more than 50% of the stake. Thus you three can be sued to demand you use your stake to censor content. I have downvoted your reply both for censoring my comment with an erroneous downvote (given your whale sized voting power) and also for writing an erroneous reply.
The sentence as written could be interpreted in two ways, you chose to take the cynical interpretation when you could have just asked.
Rather I think I chose to take the only factual interpretation.
