why is this comment rated so highly? it's completely niave with respect to the use cases of blockchain technology. I realize that a lot of people like here like to boohoo this stuff but there are several legitimate reasons to use a blockchain. One of the most important reasons being the ability to resist government censorship of information that would otherwise be subject to cease and desist or outright take downs. Another is the ability to transact with any other individual without relying on a system of banks and long waiting periods and their fees. And what about reward systems that remove the middle man? What about the recent scandal with Patreon? I could go on and on I hope you get the point.

i agree with you, the article is rambling and mostly sets up and attacks straw men
