Agreed. And, btw, they are not going against token developers or miners but against companies that are profiting from selling securities without complying to the regulations and some times even wash trading them.

But you won't verify the blockchain and call every node to say "hey! big corp X is cheating". The consensus protocol is what it is and if 51% agree on anything it will go on. We are at the mercy of 4 giants messing with the chain. Also probably simple double spending could be noticed and proven wrong but, for instance, rolling back a transaction would still be possible breaking the immutability of the blockchain.

I mean, I may be wrong, but don't consensus between miners determine whether a block is valid or not? Specifically, 51% of mining power determines this, AFAIK.

An alternative may be to stop tracking users and sharing cookie data with third parties by default.

I'm sorry, will do in the future. Thanks for the comment.

Good question!

The ability to understand and praise (although not share) someone else's goals in life!

You almost sound like the world champion don't usually play on Lichess.

So many comments failing to grasp the idea of someone wanting his job/passion to be publicly available at the cost of him not getting rich. So sad.

Yeah, I understand this now, thanks.

Ok, I was missing the technical definition. Thank you very much!

I don't understand. They say the observable universe contains 10x more galaxies than previously thought, and the reason for that is the concentration of galaxies being greater in the part of the universe that our telescopes can't see?

You can't just ignore the photos, videos, testimonies, articles in international media with different ideologies only to base your thesis in "It's my opinion". Well, in fact you can, but your opinion doesn't deserve to be respected.

My first thought was: "Oh, great! If slave labor is not efficient anymore there will be no more slave workers in the world". On a second thought (and based on our history), that probably will be true, but only because people that today are working just for a plate of rice will starve to death.

And at least we all have SOME control over governments, not the case with companies.

Not to mention the new 'Private Justice' they want to set up in order to benefit corporations.

I noticed this and don't like it. I even wrote them a complain through their Help Center and never got a response back. Sad.
