I personally don't think that users getting into centralized blacklists because of plagiarism and reward farming has something to do with freedom of speech.

I do agree that blacklists should be decentralized and opt-in, but when the blacklisters downvote posts from some users because of posting something available somewhere else and wasn't linked to source and without own description, I would just ignore them. Anyway, if the user who was blacklisted becomes "good" (makes plagiarism-free and useful posts) and wasn't removed from the blacklist, then I would do think of that as a problem with them.

Well, you are free to think that, but we remain a Free Speech platform and do not censor text.

  • We truncate links if it includes child porn, phishing or blatant scams, but actually leave the text there for all to see, if they want for transparency purposes.

How much more for .

A few sentences that someone said was taken from their article or something they said @savvyplayer

  • Plagiarism protects the theft of long-form content, not short bits of information like what we have on our Dapp

But again, we will create a culture of citing sources, etc.

I did not say that short bits of information is (always) plagiarism. There is what people call "reward farming", where the user does not put noticeable effort in publishing posts, and just hoping that their posts get upvotes (unless the poster declines payout). 🤨

Standards about what is not allowed on a #FreeSpeech platform shouldn't be up to interpretation, it should be blatantly obvious

  • If it's not obvious, then there's nothing wrong with it

Case in point, a "Noticeable" effort to you, might not be a noticeable effort to ME, etc.

Case in point, you should at least agree that there are some posts which are made for reward farming that are obvious. 🤨
