Would it be wrong if Trump banned Alex Jones

Of course not and I said nothing of the sort. The point is that claiming blockchain is more secure seems to defy evidence.

Well lets take Mt Gox as an example, it wasn’t the tech, it was their incompetence. Otherwise the hackers would have nailed everyone.

“It was a well-known issue that every major exchange in the bitcoin community knew about and had solutions for. Mt. Gox did not,” said Jordan Kelley, chief executive of Robocoin, the world’s first bitcoin ATM maker.

In addition, hackers aren’t going to be anywhere near as incentivized to get their hands on your files.

Government vs. Private businesses. It’s really not that hard.

Did Kavanaugh ever think of an example of laws controlling men’s bodies?

You really don’t understand the difference between public and private?

Why do we constantly have to explain really basic stuff?

The answer to your question explains the results of the last election.

And it would be abhorrent and a violation of the Constitution if Trump banned conservative media. It would be a catastrophe. Liberals would be dismayed.

Trump could make the blind see and the lame walk and liberals would be dismayed.

You let us know when that happens and then we can talk.

It can never be the technologies fault since all technology requires implementation. There’s vulnerabilities everywhere.

Claiming blockchain is more secure just doesn’t stand to scrutiny as long as these things keep happening.

would it be good if Trump stopped dissent?

Are you actually defending Alex Jones’ “right” to break the rules he agreed to on all those social media platforms he has been banned from?

Apparently, Alex Jones is missing an opportunity here. He should move all of his internet business to THIS site…Hannity would never ever ever censor him in any way. That would be WRONG.

The OP doesn’t really care about this He just wants people to engage with him. He’s is fully aware of what the first amendment means. He’s just pretending not to so that the thread won’t die.

What kind of person would do that?

Needy. As needy as my 10 year old Labrador Retriever.

They didn’t hack in and steal existing bit coins, it’s more akin to a dupe exploit in an mmo. If you aren’t familiar with it I can explain further but to put it shortly they lagged them out with dos attacks and used that delay to redeem existing coins multiple times.

dantes · 2018-09-11T16:37:59.894Z

Please, explain it further. I’m very interested.

Point being it’s not applicable to the security of your personal data.

Says nothing about the Mt Gox hack, which based on everything I’ve read certainly was a theft of real existing bitcoins over the process of years.

Blockchain doesn’t protect anonymity. It actually publicizes activity in a public ledger able to be scraped.

it really isn’t hard to understand that Trump has no mechanism to ban anything.

facebook and twitter for ALEX JONES

Hey and Netflix won’t let me put my home movies on there. Is that discrimination or do they get to choose what’s on their platform?

I fear your “home movies” may exceed the rating limit of Netflix.
