One day I hope a Satoshi creates a UI that connects to the Steem blockchain, then disappears and the UI can exist without fear of attack from govs. The issue with saying who and who shouldn't be here is it always winds up just how it is with Facebook. Give an inch, and they will take a mile. I am not saying I agree or disagree, but I rather downvote hate content then censor it, because censorship isn't a one-way street, the good people can get censored too.

But it looks like Steemit Inc have just taken down @thedarkoverlord...

Steemit Inc has not really blocked their account or removed it. Only in steemit.com its not seen.

Yeah, imagine they blocked their account... that would be unprecedented.

GDPR blocking is existing for a very long time. So its not really "unprecedented"

This is actually possible. All we need to do is remove a file from the "condenser" application that powers steemit.com

Also the alternate front ends thats not implementing GDPR / DMCA support is already showing these accounts.
