RE: Very Serious Question FOR DTube & Steemit - Posting Mainstream Media Content on DTube?

in #steemit7 years ago

I can see that no one here has an answer to this question so certainly it's a fine place for an open debate. Personally I greatly Miss the exposure that I found on other platforms of content that was created by other than the poster. These posts and the sharing of those posts on those media platforms have exposed minions of people two alternative ideas that they wouldn't have come into contact with otherwise. Certainly there are copyright issues all over the place and even centralized platforms like YouTube running to conflicts regularly. I'd like to live in a world where information flowed free. On the other hand when I look at my social media feeds I find their content far more depressing then that which I find on steemit. The control of original information on steemit is limited, but then again so is one's exposure to ideas. I think that the Network's agenda is to Foster the free flow of information and to the extent I can help to bring that about, well I probably shall.

Actually I think that the roadblock 2 the free flow of information are the content creators and corporate interests trying to profit directly by controlling how their media is used. In the world as it is there's no direct way of dismantling the system. However it does seem possible that one can create smaller Networks with the free exchange of information in them that reside within the context of the greater Network in general. This process over time could Herald a new paradigm in the way that we think about these issues of command control and freedom.
