Well from where I sit (human behavior and psychology) there are a few realities that should be considered before jumping into a predetermined solution paradigm (like censorship).
- It is and has always been impossible to legislate morality.
- The "laws" should be made which stop encouragement to participate.
Just because you outlaw murder or smoking pot does not mean that people will stop doing either. Likewise with child porn, its already illegal and low and behold,,, there it is.
The focus should be on $$$$$ or "incentive" to produce such content. Well the way you do that is to make it ILLEGAL to PAY FOR or RECIEVE PAYMENT FOR child porn (or whatever moral construct that society has a problem with).
Many might not like this solution, but it would take (keep) the financial incentives away from the content providers. This is an issue for Steemians as any "upvote" on such content would be "payment".... I like giving the witnesses the "power" to close any account that either recieved upvotes or gave upvotes on any such content..
My underlying point is that neither BitCoin nor Steemit should be considered "illegal" (to download or whatever) just because it contains content considered immoral.
Unfortunately the current laws are not written with psychological reality as a consideration. They are mostly written to give broad power to the State.
These are all very good points. Thanks for sharing!
