New Blockchain app developed to detect Fake News. Massive crowdsourcing vehicle to proclaim The Truth. Considerable potential to impose censorship on politically incorrect news sites, whether right, left, conservative, progressive, nationalist, globalist, climate alarmist, climate skeptic, Cabal, populist, etc.
But who decides What is Truth? Does Truth change? Do groomed sheeple then stand any chance to break out of their mind-chains when access to alternative Truths is denied in electronic media? How do paradigm breakers stand a chance of getting their science or news or inventions out to the marketplace of ideas? Can the Wikipedia model be applied to rating news stories?
The app pays "miners" in Bitcoin. Will the Fattest Wallet win in the long run? Will those in power protect their own?
See websites below for an explanation of Trive, a blockchain app designed to weed out Fake News but which brings along new problems of its own. Please go to the Part 1 and Part 2 stories to comment on and present your views (need to establish an account but you can display an alias instead of your real name). Lord knows we've had plenty of Fake News and censorship by MSM in our quest to MAGA!
