You know you have a point but here's the problem with that theory. There's only 4 big players on the internet world stage and you have to be part of one or 2 of them. On oct.1st they put the internet into the hands of private ownership of whomever the investor are, so therefore it all belongs to them and we have end user agreements that tie us to an account and that is our pass through to use the internet. AI is learning our every move and our likes and dislikes and it's making our experience better, so they say. Anything and everything is for the use of everyone on the web anymore, and we all agree to it every time we log in. As for copyrights, that's just an easy way of keeping yourself employed and keeping money coming in, but that's has a problem with that to. It's all based on the old system wrapped around greed and it keeps others from actually expanding on an idea. As humans we think everything blongs to us. The creativity is the only thing we have but in the big picture is that even really ours and we just claim it, for profit. If we want to change the world we need to get rid of the me me me mentality and do it for the betterment of everyone, for everyone. That's my idea, what's yours?

What I'm referring to is the fact that Google will remove display of ads on sites that contains content not meeting their guidelines. We cannot allow ads by Google on this platform for revenue, as a few have suggested in other posts, because some of the content on Steemit is definitely outside of Google's guidelines. Likewise, with YouTube killing the play of some videos that do not match up with their guidelines, we should come up with our own solution.
My point is not about developing ownership that excludes, it's about preventing dictatorial censorship that will harm this community from reaching its goals. Simply that.
