Hi there Steemer, you can't speak or access your wallet unless you sign the rules we made up -- Jokes on you, Steemit
Am I the only one ticked off by this? I expect this kind of crap with Facebook. But I came to Steemit as an open blockchain based network that an individual entity could not control. I joined Steem as an alternative to corporate goons, not for more of the same.
Yet today I am presented with a box saying I have to agree to someone s terms. Who's terms? This is my page and my wallet and my content on Steemit is my own. I don't recognize the fake laws of illegal governments of force, nor Steemits ability to enforce those upon me with ever-changing TERMS. Forced checkboxes don't change that. I DO NOT AGREE.
What happens if we don't "agree" which I did under duress since apparently not agreeing would mean my content and my wallet would be locked away and effectively stolen by Steemit.
This feels like Steemit hijacking our wallets and forcing us to comply for access. If they can lock us from our accounts for not agreeing to their terms, what stops them from locking us out because the government says so This is censorship and it's unacceptable.
A platform whose access controlled by the whims of people behind their desks is not free speech.
Any thoughts on this Steemers?
