RE: Blurt may freeze accounts for engaging in subversive tactics
The last one may not make sense unless you are aware Blurt has no downvotes. They do however have a coal list that allows a central authority to disable your ability to receive upvotes. So in my eyes, they do have downvotes they are just not decentralized like they are on Hive.
This (and the account freezing) is much worse than the downvote abuse on Hive. This makes Blurt similar to (or even much worse than) traditional social networks. Technically if they disable your ability to receive upvotes, then those are not downvotes, but total control, total censorship over the reward distribution. They literally control who can be rewarded.
The reality is that as Blurt heads to the $0.001 price point
I have not tried Blurt so far, but based on the facts above, Blurt deserves it. And even lower, like $0.0001 USD.
Ah don't go down into The Valley of Schadenfreude, that's bad for your karma.
I had to look up the meaning of schadenfreude.
But this is not misfortune. This is the well deserved consequence of the intentional bad actions of the Blurt owners (account freezings, disabling the ability of various accounts to receive downvotes, etc).
