What will be sphere's monetization scheme like Facebook has ads?
It will be stated in whitepaper as business model. They plan to create an ad platform. Advertisers can pay with SAT tokens for the ads. well I use adblocker everywhere and millions others also like me. |

If you think that the average Joe uses Adblockers you're clearly overstimating the people who navigate the internet. By a lot  |

There is some people try to scam your money like in every successful ico out there.
You should double check everything you are doing while participating in an ico.
Not just participating in ICO, you should really DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING. Scammers also evolve. Be careful, guys. always be careful which address you're using and go to the dev's website to get it. double-check the website as well. You are right, now the scammers are very high quality fake websites of real ICO, which is sometimes difficult to distinguish! |

no need to be paranoid.
Simply check several characters at the beginning of the address and in the end. This is quite enough.
We are in crypto, here are not stupid email collectors and Viagra spammers. People here are intelligent and often have good programming skills. If they make a fake, you will not see it at the first glance. So my advise is, be paranoic every day and doublecheck every times, before you hit enter. Use two computers, one for crypto, one for surfing and so on. Being paranoid in cryptoland is wise, not a psychological disease. Agreed! The bad guys out there always update their ways to fool people. Extra high precautions are a must. |

Even in telegram groups people pretend to be admins and tries to scam people using pm's with saying that "special discounts can be available send xx eth or btc to ... address" so beware any of this. |

If you think that the average Joe uses Adblockers you're clearly overstimating the people who navigate the internet. By a lot I think many people use an ad blocker. It's not that difficult you just have to download an extension. But the best is to use a script-blocker like uMatrix. |

Indeed, many people use it but not most of them, at least not among the people I know. |

Would be really nice if the devs could post an official information that they are aware of the scammers and try to do something against them
I think they pinned a message about it or even they didn't do that, i absolutely think they must do it. People sometimes can get careless and do sth. stupid so every campaign manager, community manager should increase awareness about this situations. |

Use two computers, one for crypto, one for surfing and so on. Being paranoid in cryptoland is wise, not a psychological disease. Sometimes its hard to be so thorough when pre sale or ICO is sold out in meter of minutes and you really need to be fast on order to not miss the sale. Thats why you need to prepare yourself beforehand and know your steps. |

I think by what M.Z. want to say: "With the growth of a small number of large technology companies - and governments using technology to track their citizens," it's only afraid that its platform will go down. Maybe that's why she wants to decentralize the platform. It has been known for a long time that we are being watched in everything we do on facebook. Many of us are tired of this.Maybe he's afraid of projects like Sphere. The issue of personal data is in their hands; not in the hands of governments or other companies. From my point of view, they are 100% responsible. The sphere will be a great success and will make Facebook fall for sure. Facebook is already holding ridiculous amounts of data of their users and they are monetizing it. I hope that decentralized platforms will change the way how current social networks are working I'm sure of it. And I have high hopes for the Sphere project. and existing social networks will be a thing of the past! Unfortunately, most users of facebook and the like don't care about their data, that's way I think it could make it difficult for projects like Sphere to get a lot of users from there straight away. It's going to be very dificult make users who have been using the same platform for years change to other platform but not impossible. in fact, i think it will be very difficult to convince users who use the same platform for many years to switch to another new, but perhaps with new and unique features sphere will attract the users of other social networks and will become a point of reference for crypto and social users You are not right. Now a lot of social networks impose restrictions on content, it negatively affects the General situation of all social networks. |

Thats why you need to prepare yourself beforehand and know your steps. We live in this time - other side of the decentralization medal this is favorable environment for hacking. With each passing day they invent more and more sophisticated methods of hacking - and the last case surprised me when at the decentralized exchange -Etherdelta they was changed DNS address of the server. So guys, sometimes caution will not help - the world of cryptocurrencies and security is not stable at the moment. |
