RE: What is the STEEM Response to Contraband: Child Pornography, Identity Theft, Etc?

Great questions. Unfortunately, I do not have the answers.

I agree that illegal activities should be prevented, but we will need to make sure that the proposed solution only goes after illegal activities and not silence others due to difference of oinions.

Big time. And that is the tension. I have witnessed at least one flagging war that stemmed from a disagreement of content. The @familyprotection group shares and curates stories about CPS abuse and they had a couple of pretty powerful flaggers going after them. Even if you think someone is completely off their rocker and is spreading false info (for me, Flat Earthers fall in that category), I don't think censorship is necessarily the preferred route.
