The mods at /r/bitcoin are now deleting every post that mentions the existence of the "other" implementation of bitcoin, whatever the contents. Dozens of posts that had hundreds of upvotes and hundreds of comments. And banning users who defend it, too.
So much for the great age of freedom and stuff that bitcoin was going to bring.
Oh, and the bitcoin "news" webshites, like CoinDesk, have been as silent on the topic as any statist newsmedia would be.
I don't blame Coindesk for being silent on this one. They are advancing the cause of crypto currency, whereas this forking issue is just a bunch of hyenas. Bitcoin is 'not' a single solution to this digital currency space, and it is better off keeping its integrity while its utility evolves.
