Example: @ned is the CEO of Steemit Inc and has millions of Steempower, but this fact shouldn't give his opinion hundred-thousand times more weight in terms of the subjective rating of content in comparison to the average user.
steem should be more decentralized from ned before it's ready for mainstream. the fact that one man has control over all hardforks, most witnesses, and is the biggest stakeholder with zero competitors is a huge red flag. i dunno why so many people are completely ok with it 😦
maybe it's just me, but i don't think steem is censorship resistant right now.
i hope account-based voting would work as intended. but we're back to the same problem. we rely on ned to define 'quality posts' and 'good persons'.
