RE: [STEEMSQL.COM] A public SQL server database with all Steemit blockchain data

Seriously, Doesn't this defeat the purpose of decentralization?
Why its defeat decentralization?
No. The essence of data analysis is collecting (aggregating ) data and making meaningful insights from it, which requires centralization by rule. The decentralized nature of the data isn't in jeopardy here because there are still unlimited copies of the Steemit blockchain out there ensuring that there is no vulnerable, mutable, single-source of the truth. This particular copy just happens to facilitate reporting.
