I think it is unreasonable to be the focus. It definitely should be a part of it but not overshadowing the story that's in the headline. I don't really feel like I learned anything I didn't already know just from seeing a single tweet about it. I still don't know what the Canine Cartel is because despite being in the headline, it's not even described.

I do think there's potential for cryptocurrency but the way it's being treated now is to strip all that potential away. The potential should be a global currency that can be used by everyone for international transactions and which preserves privacy by being anonymous. But neither of those are desired by governments that want to control and track their citizens.

"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
~John Stuart Mill~
