RE: Oracles and their Inherent Censorship Problem

in #oracles5 years ago

It just concerns me how these oracles gather their information. Was it in a legitimate way? because, the privacy of a person is still a top priority and, although the data collected were only for a legitimate study, I am simply not comfortable with this.......

You concern is legitimate @nurseanne84. That is why the EU came up with GDPR. We believe a similar national law will be in place for the US in the near future.

Well said @data.plus. I guess your username suggests what you believe.

The data collection mechanism is usually in the hands of the person who makes the oracle @nurseanne84.

There was a famous case on the Augur platform where someone came up with a smart contract for the assassination of the Russian President. Even though wide controversial, one can imagine what type of Oracle would've been connected to the smart contract, nd what validity would that carry?

I am sure you can find it online.
