RE: Ned Scott: Malice or Incompetence?
The problem that muddies the water is "what was Ned's actual intentions?"
Let us say that Ned wanted to start an online thingy that said it was about freedom of speech while setting it up to be taken over and become closed speech. If that was Ned's plan, that it was executed brilliantly.
He first set up a huge stake whereby he could take control at any time, and then started the "its a community thing".
He got a group of programmers that couldn't program their way out of a wet paper bag and kept any real talent from doing anything real within the system.
i believe the problem we have is not understanding the real direction the directors of steemit had for us.
And, i agree 100% that Ned is a poor leader.
My instincts for a while has been that he is/was a trained asset acting on behalf of a third party (state or non-state actor).
Should be pretty easy to recognize based on how this all shakes out. If he's protected, that will be a major indicator.
