However, if a small fringe for example wants to sell CP then that small fringe should not be allowed to spoil things for the greater majority.
Who wants to draw the line?
Meanwhile I know the claim of millitarian groups who want to push through their moral concepts with all their might.
Whoever makes an exception at CP is also quick at heavy weapons and contract killers. If this limit is crossed, normal armament is no longer acceptable. Drugs, even light ones, are the next victim of censorship. And then, of course, any material that shows even the beginnings of a naked female breast.
If you allow censorship, we will very soon have such conditions that we already know from the Fiat world.
The fact that this has already had to be discussed in your community shows me the tendency in which the guardians of virtue finally gain the upper hand.
Those who cannot bear free goods and services with all the, perhaps abstruse facets, should stay on ebay.
The cryptoworld will anyway be only a niche for a long time, and that's exactly how you should look at a cryptomarket: To get goods and services that are not so easy to find in the regulated Fiat world.
We are at the beginning of a fascist world order with total surveillance of each individual. Nothing is therefore more urgently needed than a truly free market through which the military industrial complex and state terrorism is not financed by taxes.
edit --- david already posted whilst i was writing this reply....
I've read through your post but I do not believe it to be 100% correct. Imho.
I think you are trying to say far more (let's say the threshold the decentralised vote had to reach 85% for ban or delist) than the vast majority will spend time worrying about a bit of drugs or guns being sold. I expect most will not care enough about that at all. Most people these days are kind of okay about other people choosing to take some substances or if they want to own items for self protection. Then again I think there is far greater than 85% consensus for somethings to be voted off.
This of course is still not even taking into account the fact private markets (invisible to all except those you send the link).
Bitbay i think can find a sweet spot on this I believe without using centralised moderation keys.
I think you underestimate the younger generation that will likely use such software to respect peoples rights to self governance in many areas they would not dare to respect face to face, but over a decentralised anon software they will not bother with anything much.
People sadly can not have the right to do anything and still get the benefits to transact at the same level as others that do whom will abide with what the vast vast vast majority REALLY want. Not what they have to say they want but what they REALLY want when answering behind the wall of decentralised anonymity. Actually it is better than that for the fringe people because they only have to abide by what the vast vast vast majority REALLY REALLY do not want to see to a level that will inspire them to take time to vote it off.
That gives them more than enough scope on bitbay along with private markets.
I mean one could argue why should we vote off cheats and scammers and not infringe upon their personal choice to cheat and scam others. If they want to act like that then why should anyone be able to impose our will upon them. The problem is for any cooperative arrangement to work you do need to keep the vast vast majority happy or else they will find ways to cooperate else where.
I just think your argument is over stating the link between what most people REALLY believe is terrible to what they just don't really care about enough to take their time over voting on if it is not directly effecting them.
However, I have read a lot of your posts on the Byteball thread and for sure you make a lot of very good points and seem like a very smart person. So I'm glad to hear your views on bitbay too. I hope David will be back soon to answer your other points and debate the best ways to develop a decentralised marketplace.
I am not saying you are wrong but I am saying I can not see that your argument follows as you say it will. I could be wrong.
bitbay is the best solution to date that I have found. I think you will too if you look into it.
