Facebook political control.....of customers messages

Interesting post here about how Facebook deleted a page with 3m subscribers.....but 'after' the user had spent $300,000 on facebook ads.....

Its an interesting issue, sure Facebook has the rights to control who is saying what on their site.....but should they be forced to refund the money they happily took from that customer who was building up this follower base?

Should someone let the Walmart/IBM marketing departments know what a BlockChain/Distributed ledger actually means.....?

BlockChain scalability

ThankYou ++


Christopher Heine‏

"Helpful to understand current scaleability:
Bitcoin can process about 4-5 transactions per second.
Ethereum maxes out at about 25 transactions per second.

Visa can process over 24,000 transactions per second."
