RE: EXISTENCE of Steem and Steemit UNDER THREAT - Hollywood Blockbusters Published by Steemians on Steem and Steemit

in #copyright7 years ago

Good post @edje. As much as I would love to watch these movies for free, you're completely right that this could ruin the platform. Not only its reputation, but also from attacks from Hollywood. I know a big plus of Steemit is to avoid censorship, but when copyright material is being used, we should have someone able to shut down an account and remove the material.

Sort:  

I absolutely agree. Although shutting down an account, does not prevent things from happening again as shown by ifps-movie being flagged to REP lower than zero and the establishment of the chainflix account just a moment later by the same Steemian, that I'm pretty sure about, although proof is difficult since ANONSTEEM was used. But looking at who upvoted immediately the Matrix movie published with ifps-movie (https://steemd.com/@ipfs-movies) and who plays with its votes with most of the movies published with chainflix https://steemd.com/@chainflix, it seems to be the same Steemit account behind it.

we have to continue being vigilant as a community, and speaking up with things go wrong...

Fully Agree!

10000% agreed !

Yeah, that's a tough one. Like flagging all of the spammers and plagiarists, it could simply become "Dweilen met de kraan open"!

That indeed may be the case; Maybe we should stack up on many 'Dweil's' :)

Sounds like a plan! :D
