You thought it would be obvious that the exact thing you described wasn’t the thing you were talking about?? Do you not know what “obvious” means?

No, that’s not what I’m referring to.
One example of the kind of situation I’m referring to is the ghash.io incident: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GHash.io

It also fails as a decentralised system of trust. Despite the proponents claims of a 51% attack being incredibly unlikely, it’s already happened multiple times, even to the largest blockchain networks.
Blockchain is an interesting concept on paper, but the primary advantage of decentralised control has been proven to be unreliable.
There are simply no problems solved by blockchain that can’t be solved more efficiently and effectively by other alternatives.

No one’s selling it. It’s just a hypothetical that many people enjoy thinking about. From engineering challenges to so social implications. Turns out many human beings enjoy using their imagination, just because you’re not one of them, no need to drag everyone else down to your level of misery.

Ever heard of the Innocence Project?

Over half the people they have helped were falsely accused of sexual crimes.
It doesn’t matter if it happens rarely. Guilt is not determined by statistics.

All suspects are guilty!! Otherwise they wouldn’t be suspects, would they?

Reply to A study found that people perceive that robots are replacing human jobs at a greater rate than they actually are. Only 14% of workers say they’ve had their job replaced by a robot. Workers who had been supplanted by a robot estimated that 47% of all jobs have been lost to robots. by Brave_Cycle_8745
As someone who develops robots to do other peoples jobs, I say hazaah! More please!!
