RE: The new Terms of Service is a concern to me, a resident of China
It's so easy for us who live in countries with free speech to forget who potentially dangerous this can be for those of you who don't. I don't think Steemit Inc. is even allowed to store your phone numbers if you ask them to delete is, and it's not like they can ever delete your entire account.
I hope Steemit Inc. actually take these concerns seriously, instead of just ignoring them. As you said, they probably just update the terms to cover their ass, but didn't consider how badly it could affect users in other parts of the world.
Yep. I imagine it's not going to be much of a concern currently given the small size of the entire blockchain but as things inevitably grow, attention will be gotten, and that's how it starts =/
Yep, if Steem grows to be the place a lot of people hope for, governments are definitely going to also be taking notice of it. Let's hope Steemit Inc. can respond to your concerns before that point.
