    …and, hear me out, that will be perfect for keeping messages untraceable by the government. Every single of those 200,000 computers will have full copies of all the messages ever transmitted, unencrypted, but they’ll never be able to tell who wrote them and who they were for.

      Hey, it’s not just fancy autocomplete!

      Thanks to years of innovation, it’s now copyright infringement as well.

          The thing is its only the copyrights of individual artists and creators that will die to this.

          The big corpos will find a way to protect their value, just you wait.

          They will steal from every single creative in the world and then sue them to hell and back if they use anything they them selves “own”

          This is not a threat to the copyrights that you want to die.

    Crypto =/= blockchain.

    If you can’t see the utility of blockchain with regards to things like actual, verifiable digital ownership, then I don’t know what to tell you.

      How about first we see a version that isn’t a scam? We’ve seen plenty of scam versions so far.

    I love how one man created arguably the most complex puzzle in the history of mankind and people shit on it just because it’s literally hard to solve (aka “uses energy”) and the solutions have value.
