We need “Decentralization”, to save the social network

Today I would like to talk with my dear steemit friends about "decentralization", because I had a terrible experience from a very successful Chinese website in the past two days. That makes me feel that in the present, our Internet environment really needs to be saved by decentralization.

今天想跟大家一起谈一下“去中心化”，因为我这两天遇到了一件事情，所以觉得我们现在的互联网环境真的需要去中心化来拯救。

The Chinese website which is called “qiong you wang”, it’s the biggest and most successful website about traveling, the users can write about their traveling experiences, you find travel guides, can post photos, ask questions, and look for travel partners. In this website, people also can book plane tickets and any other tourism products. The website also brought many Internet celebrity’s in recent years, due to its huge popularity. But what happened to me recently; the website just blocked my account without any explanation. I sent a email to ask for the reason and they replied me, that they blocked me because I made advertisement about my travel tour business. In fact, someone just asked about travel tips in Switzerland and I just replied that if she needs any help, she can contact with me, because I’m doing private high quality travel tour business. I have written a lot of posts and posted many photos on this website and all these writings are really important for myself. But now, authority killed all my personal value.

可能在Steemit的大部分中国用户都知道“穷游网”这个网站。这是中国最大的旅游类的网站，用户可以在网站上写自己的游记攻略，也可以约旅伴，提些旅游相关的问题，还可以订机票、自由行，旅游产品，可以说是做的非常好了。而且这个网站也捧红了许多网络红人，例如“猫力”。我曾经也是这个网站的忠实用户，但我前几天竟然被这个网站封号了。我觉得非常莫名其妙，以为是误删，发了邮件问起原因，对方回复是因为我在别人的提问回复内容中有“高端私人定制旅游”，意思就是我打广告了。其实只是有人问关于瑞士旅游的一些问题，我回复说我在瑞士做定制旅游，可以联系我。因为我在穷游网上也看到其他人在推广自己的旅游产品，当那些人都是高端客户。但是在没有任何通知警告的情况下就直接封了我的账号，我是非常郁闷的，更何况我曾经在该网站也写了不少对我个人来说很有意思的帖子。

Because this happened, I am more and more determined to advocate of decentralization. Our individual language should not be disturbed and disintegrated. In fact, a good social networking should let everyone join in and let the people say whatever they want and all users decide whether it’s appropriate content or not. No authority should be able to brutally interrupt something!

Another point is that you can meet many real friends in an equal way. For example on Steemit; we are here to share our life, travel, photography, art, opinions and much more. Every thought needs a place to be expressed, steemit lets the person who has the same hobbies get closer to each other without making huge companies richer at the same time. And in the case of equality, we can express our own view and speak out what we want and everyone is free to flag us, everyone, not one authority. In our society, decentralization is also what we have been pursuing for thousands of years. So decentralization is the future of social networking products.

因为这件事，我更加坚定了去中心化，我们个体的语言不应该被干扰和瓦解。 事实上，社交网络应该是让每一个人说的话都有合适的人去听，而不是被主导意识粗暴的打断。 另外的一个意义是，你能够通过平等的方式去结识一些真正的朋友。比如Steemit，我们在这里分享自己的生活、旅行、摄影、艺术，以及crypto，不仅仅给自己的思想找到了一个出口，也让有相同爱好的人会彼此接近。而且是在平等的情况下，我们各抒己见。 去中心化和中心化其实就是分权和集权，这其实正是我们人类社会几千年来所追求的。所以去中心化也是社交产品的未来。
