...it's not complicated. You can, but you get banned, and then you can't do it again.

I still feel like people havent figured out this internet thing.

If I want to report on a post by say some scrubby Islamic State propagandist I'm going to do it. They can ban me but it will just become part of the reporting. Then give me a few minutes and I'll be back on the site doing my thing again.

Terrible terms of service don't make a private garden. Neither does IP/phone number fingerprinting. I agree with you though, it is not that complicated.

> Alas I am in no position to analyze ZCash math vs RingCT but my feeling is the latter is more understandable and thus might be more secure even if it has much weaker safety promises.

Depends on what type of security you want. If you're talking about security against inflation, then RingCT is definitely safer than Zcash.

But if you're talking about privacy security, then Zcash is more secure than RingCT; the trusted setup can only be used to create fake Zcash, not deanonymize transactions.

"I think we can successfully make Zcash too traceable for criminals like WannaCry, but still completely private & fungible"

"I _don't_ mean weakening security (https://z.cash/support/faq.html#backdoor …). I mean that a secure protocol layer is compatible with good law enforcement." -zooko

Not sure how your statements carry water in the face of that comment.

> No just pointing out you are creating a false narrative.

And just dodging my question.

I find it endlessly fascinating why liberals can't stick to straight Q&A despite the truth on their side.

Oh, is that not a fair comment? Then answer the simple question I asked.

Who are you talking to?

Oh you’re free to report on it. You’re just not free to keep using the site afterwards. Their club, their rules.

Bring me to court about that one.

Zcash takes one of the only novel parts of Bitcoin, not requiring trust in a central authority, and pitches it into the garbage.

The garbage is likely where Zcash belongs.
