Censorship (self.Bitcoin)

hodlgentlemen が 投稿

Speak up if you are opposed to censorship of "contentious hard fork" discussions such as Bitcoin XT. Speak up if this is not the subreddit you signed up for.

I posted this about 10 min ago and my thread was deleted immediately:

Title: XT is not only On Topic, it is THE most important topic right now. Stop the censorship. (self.Bitcoin) submitted 12 minutes ago by evoorhees

Text: The discussion of XT and the fork is the most important topic in Bitcoin right now. Please stop censoring it. Regardless of one's opinion on block sizes, the debate must happen. Whichever mod/s is censoring needs to stop.

[–]anti-censorship 50ポイント51ポイント  (3子コメント)

Says it all really Eric.

Theymos has shown his true colours during this farce.

[–]redhawk989 36ポイント37ポイント  (2子コメント)

Showed his true colors when he spent 1m on forum software and idiots thought that was reasonable

[–]wawin 15ポイント16ポイント  (1子コメント)

By the mod deleting logic if XT wins out then by then all bitcoin core discussion should be deleted and labeled an altcoin, wonder how they would feel about that.

[–]AmIHigh 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

I actually believe that I read him saying that if this were to happen, that is the action he'd take.

Bitcoin (now) would be considered the altcoin and censored.

[–]rePAN6517 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

StarMaged has definitely been deleting lots of comments today - he's even admitted it in a few of the remaining posts. Not sure about theymos but I wouldn't be surprised.

[–]jasonswan 34ポイント35ポイント  (5子コメント)

They are really trying to stop XTs growth by stonewalling all communication, absolutely crazy.

There must be strong incentives for higher ups/mods to stifle growth and keep the system gimped.

[–]platinum_rhodium 19ポイント20ポイント  (2子コメント)

In a way it would be kind of amusing if we've developed this amazing protocol to get around tyrannical governments and all they had to do to thwart it this whole time was just toss some money to a few web mods.

[–]marcus_of_augustus 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hahaha, you don't know how true that is ... or how ironic.

[–]AmIHigh 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

You left off paying some people to cause dissent to make the discussion look more contentious than it may or may not be.

It's the perfect attack really - Wait until there's something very contentious going on, and pay people to support whichever side appears to be losing at any given moment, so it looks like it's continually split.

They could be paying for/against as long as it's a serious enough issue to cause a divide, *and stall / halt progress.

[–]rePAN6517 11ポイント12ポイント  (1子コメント)

I agree. The actions being taken here seem a little too out of control to be simple ideological differences. This really smells like disruption being funded by outside influences.

[–]cflag 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

In my opinion, it is more about our laziness coming back to bite our asses. Quite like how it happened with MtGox.

Unlike many others, I think theymos et al. managed the forums and Bitcoin websites reasonably well throughout the years. However, people are not infallible. We should have moved to decentralized censorship-resistant channels by now. Yet, maybe ironically, theymos is among the few who have talked about such alternatives, like Freenet.

[–]romromyeah 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

The mod may have too much pride. It's ok to admit your mistake and see that people, bitcoiners are interested in XT as a topic. Sense of pride can be overwhelming for some.

[–]waterlesscloud 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

The censorship is wildly irresponsible, since as you note this is the single most important topic in bitcoin.

I've unsubbed this subreddit. It's no longer a reliable source of news, and thus useless to me. Actually it's worse, it has negative value at this point.

[–]pitahdu2 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

[–]Coinosphere 12ポイント13ポイント  (6子コメント)

I wonder, could Theymos be compromised?

As in, could a hostile govt agency have control over his account and be trying to sway opinion towards Core because they have a Core-specific way to kill bitcoin?

Much more likely he is just sure that he's right. He believes XT is bad for Bitcoin.

    So, guys, I'm a moderator in this forum, though I don't know for how long. It is late on a Saturday and I just logged in to see this mess. One of the forum moderators has been deleting hundreds of, what appear to me, to be perfectly valid comments.

    Bitcoin-XT is NOT an alt-coin. It is an alternate client. Bitcoin-core is not some magical specially anointed copy of the code. That is deeply flawed and centralized thinking.

    Bitcoin is supposed to be decentralized and whichever client the majority of the community runs will, naturally, organically, and by design, become the new rule set on the network.

    I get that some people are strongly opposed to this fork. But, censoring discussion and incorrectly calling it an alt-coin is not the solution in my opinion.

    For the record I haven't been removing any of these comments today and, after sharing my opinion in this post, I may be removed as one of the mods. Which is fine if that happens. This is a volunteer thing that I do only when I'm already on the forum and have some free time.

    But I won't resign either. Sorry this is all such a mess right now.

    [–]xxDan_Evansxx 31ポイント32ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Thank you. I agree. Honestly you are obviously correct and it's hard to believe that a rational adult would not see this if not emotional. Please mods, think this through. Take some time to relax and think it through. It's obviously an appropriate discussion for this sub.

    Mmm funny.. fwiw. Jratcliffe63367 deletes threads and posts too.. Back in the day.. any thread mentioning Garza and KNC in the same breath was deleted.. Even though paycoin-hate-only all stayed up.. He admitted the reasoning was there was too much talk about Garza and everything was being deleted.. yet again, it only seemed the KNC infused stuff was being so... MMmm? I wonder..

    Anyways.. Look how those two entities look now a year later.... Maybe all those warnings shoulda stayed up.

    Point is.. just leave it all up.

    [–]BrazenAmberite 19ポイント20ポイント  (6子コメント)

    Are you in communication with /u/theymos and the other mods which are engaging in the censorship? What is their justification? Do they realize that they are censoring an extremely important topic in bitcoin's history just because of their own personal ideologies? Do they realize that they are going against the very core of reddit's rules?

    [–]jratcliff63367 35ポイント36ポイント  (5子コメント)

    Yes. I'm in communication. Theymos's position is that bitcoin-xt is an alt-coin, indistinguishable from dogecoin or litecoin. He is wrong, but he claims that is the reason for this. Dogecoin and litecoin operate on independent networks. No one submits a transaction to dogecoin and it shows up in the backlog for the bitcoin network.

    Bitcoin-xt is an alternate client on the bitcoin network. This notion that there is only one pure authorized, authentic version of the bitcoin software is nonsense. That is centralized thinking. The correct bitcoin software is the ruleset being run by a majority of the network. Today that is bitcoin-core, but there is no reason to assume it can be the only valid software.

    If that's really how he justifies his ridiculous censorship, then ask him how he supports sidechains, Lightning network, etc. Those are just as much "altcoins" as XT is, yet discussions of those are allowed on /r/bitcoin without a problem.

          [–]DanDarden 5ポイント6ポイント  (4子コメント)

          Yep, I don't know if XT is right but the other side is definitely wrong about the censorship so I assume they are wrong about XT as well. Also, I have unsubscribed. Even Jordan from Robocoin could have done a better job at managing this sub than Theymos.

          [–]_rough23 0ポイント1ポイント  (3子コメント)

          What the mods on this subreddit do has no bearing on the technical merit behind this fork. You've basically excused yourself from doing any research and coming to an educated conclusion about the issue.

          [–]DanDarden 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

          If I did more research I still wouldn't know. I'm not an expert programmer or cryptographer. I do know however when I see childish antics and ill conceived arguments such as "XT is off topic because it is an altcoin." These arguments are obvious bullshit to me.

          [–]_rough23 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

          Would you rather hold an opinion with zero evidence to support it, or not hold one? Why do the mods on a shitty subreddit speak for the core devs? And once you've lowered yourself to that level, how do you respond when someone dismisses XT as "childish antics?"

          [–]DanDarden 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

          I have evidence that the core devs are wrong, they support the "XT is an altcoin" argument which is invalid. I don't have any evidence of XT being wrong from what I have seen, they have been most professional throughout this. I like to side with professionals when it comes to my money. If core is indeed right they sure aren't conveying it properly.

          [–]friendlydubs 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Yep. I wasnt running a node previously but I am planning to start running XT shortly just to tip the scales and get rid of the dumbasses running Core into the ground.

          Really getting annoyed at how many entirely legitimate posts regarding the future of Bitcoin that the mods are deleting.

          The reality of Bitcoin xt and the community choosing to allow Bitcoins growth in adoption and utility to continue can't simply be ignored.

          [–]elgordio 21ポイント22ポイント  (1子コメント)

          I had been intending to switch my node to XT but didn't really prioritise it. All this censorship madness has made me get off my arse and switch it over.

          So I'm signing in from /r/all rising posts. Anyone wanna explain what's going on right now?

          [–]FaceDeer 16ポイント17ポイント  (4子コメント)

          Are you familiar with Bitcoin, or just a curious bystander?

          Basically, there's a disagreement among the bitcoin community about how the underlying technology behind bitcoin should function, and a version of the software has just been released that would change that behaviour if it achieved widespread adoption (75% of the network). The top mod of this subreddit is opposed to that change, though, and so has been deleting any posts that mention it.

          [–]SorryImChad 9ポイント10ポイント  (3子コメント)

          So they are doing what they can to stuff it out before it goes widespread. I assume that won't really work well, considering there are probably many platforms bitcoiners (?) can talk, right? Or is this incorrect?

          And no. I used to collect doge as a joke and stopped at like 30k. Lol.

          [–]FaceDeer 15ポイント16ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Actually, that's one of the sticking points - the top mod here also runs some of the major off-reddit discussion forums and mailing lists as well. I guess back at the dawn of Bitcoin he went around and set up these various places first and wound up with a bit of a monopoly.

          Kind of funny to run into a centralization problem of this nature where Bitcoin is involved. It'll sort itself out though, setting up new forums is easy. It's just a matter of overcoming subscriber inertia.

          Bitcoin is in the middle of a controversial hardfork. The vast majority of the community is in favor of the fork, (called BitcoinXT). But there are a few individuals with a lot of power in the community, including the mods here, who oppose the fork.

          The mods have been deleting all references to XT and the community is starting to throw an insurrection. Its a pretty exciting time for us

            I used to not really have an opinion on the block size. But because of all this censoring, I'm starting to be biased towards XT. It's not even a good reason but that's the effect it has on me.

            But I think if this is not the subreddit we want, we should just leave and find the subreddit we do want.

            I am opposed to censorship of the XT discussions and don't agree with the rationale about it being an "alt-coin". I'm not saying that it isn't an alt, but am saying that it is obviously important to bitcoin. It's not appropriate to delete any discussion of changes which would require a fork in my opinion.

            [–]BrazenAmberite 21ポイント22ポイント  (2子コメント)

            /u/theymos - You're an absolute disgrace and you should immediately remove yourself as owner and moderator of both this sub as well as bitcointalk.org. Your actions are beyond the point of being reprehensible and you need to step down immediately.

            Reddit's purpose at its very core is to be a community-run content board that is controlled by its users, with the moderators acting to reign in any abuse or blatantly off-topic posts. Censorship of legitimate discussions is not tolerated by reddit nor its users.

            XT is still using BITCOIN. It is not an altcoin or some other technology. It is a fork of the BITCOIN network that is being made by BITCOIN'S lead developers. There is nothing off-topic or irrelevant about it and there is no question that its discussion belongs on /r/bitcoin.

            This topic is for the COMMUNITY to decide on its viability, not your own personal beliefs. You're acting like a child, a dictator and a tyrant. You're censoring and going against the very fabric of what reddit is meant to be. Do the entire community of both /r/bitcoin and reddit as a whole a favor, and remove yourself as a mod immediately.

            Personally I'm not sure about forking to above 1MB at this moment - I think it is super dangerous but the discussion should not be censored. If people want to try... do it.

            If forking truly would kill Bitcoin anyone could do it. Forking Bitcoin is rather easy. Let's just see where it goes.

            Just move out of this subreddit. Some of the moderators do not support BitcoinXT, and therefore will keep deleting comments about the client.

            There is voat, if anyone wants to join.

            [–]emceenoesis 11ポイント12ポイント  (9子コメント)

            No, we can't because Voat isn't accepting new registrations. Maybe quit pushing it until that gets fixed.

            [–]rockymc 7ポイント8ポイント  (4子コメント)

            I thought they were already accepting registrations. Sorry if I let you down.

            [–]emceenoesis 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

            Heh nope it's just frustrating to see it promoted all over the place.

            [–]FaceDeer 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

            They were this morning, but when I tried signing up the captcha wasn't working right. I set it aside for a few hours to do something else and now it's invite-only again. Frustrating. :)

            [–]Peeves22 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

            They have an algorithm that slots a random time period during the day and only accepts registrations during that time.

            [–]johnibizu 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

            Saw your comment, tried registering right after, successfully registered and made that 10s ago comment.

            Voat is figuratively trying to be one of the big boys while wearing small boy pants. Down times and other problems should be expected.

            [–]RedNero 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

            not voat. r/ bitcoinxt or r/ bitcoin_uncensored

            [–]NewForOlly 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

            Voat seems like the obvious place to go and I will be spending more of my time there. Can I have an invite to sign up?

            [–]rockymc 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

            The registrations open up at a random part of the day, afaik.

            [–]jasonswan 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

            Please don't support the bitcoin voat, the same mod here is over there, check out this post:

            https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3gdad5/meta_on_hardforking_if_bitcoin_is_so_vulnerable/ctx2h9b

            Agreed, unfortunately on reddit there is no way to oust the top mod, so we're fucked unless he steps down.

            [–]drwasho 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

            I strongly oppose artificially set smaller blocks, but I would never approve of their censorship in the debate.

            The people responsible for this are afraid that they will lose, and that they will become irrelevant... Because they already are as of today.

            This is a bitcoin related subreddit, and I expect ALL bitcoin topics to be fair game including contentious ones like Bitcoin XT. Censorship is childish, and more importantly, ineffective.

            [–]apython88 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

            Highly disturbed by the censorship, here and on bitcoin talk both probably by theymos. Too much centralization of power over the discussion of BTC for my liking, and there is no way XT is an "altcoin". Good riddance.

            [–]Peeves22 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

            Why do you not move to /r/bitcoin_core?

            XT is an implementation of Bitcoins core ideas as defined in this post. Doesn't that mean it's still "Bitcoin", and thus, on topic for /r/Bitcoin?

            As per your rule:

            Submissions that are mostly about some other cryptocurrency belong elsewhere. For example, /r/CryptoCurrency is a good place to discuss all cryptocurrencies.

            The deleted submissions were about Bitcoin and its future. So the deletions were against the sub rules technically.

            [–]cap2002 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

            If you compare the list of mods in either, you'll see there's an overlap.

            This entire centralized format of online debate, where a few mods by decree can and will can do whatever at a whim is what really disgusts me.

            Voat will not change that. If anything, go USENET. It's decentralized and has been around for over 30 years.

            [–]frankenmint -2ポイント-1ポイント  (1子コメント)

            I began reading your comment in distaste only to realize that I had been in agreement with you the entire time.

            I think you're wrong though - the mailing list and on GitHub are both adequate places where ANYONE can comment how they see fit.

            [–]cap2002 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

            It's better that anyone gets a say, and you can then filter that out personally, mentally or using software, rather than that of some central authority who gets to decide what is and isn't relevant to you by being under the influence of own strong opinions, money or otherwise.

            I've posted this on another /new thread but doubt it'll gather any reply at all.

            I've been using bitcoin for a while (probably close to 2 years) but I haven't been keeping up with the current debate.

            With regard to this comment thread. I know who Mike Hearn is (he's the guy who gave the talk which got me interested in bitcoin some years ago). Can someone explain to me who StarMaged is?

            [–]abrakk 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

            This is not the subreddit I signed up for. Heck, this is not the bitcoin I signed up for.

            Now we are more like federal reserve. Time to get out.

            Physical gold seems to be better all the way. Nobody can say shit about how I manage it.

            [–]RedNero 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

            If it forces people into other forums not controlled by the same small group then the crazy censorship is a blessing in disguise.
