There is just a discussion going on about backdoors that provide the creators of smart contract applications to shut them down even though they claim it is decentralized. Will your app be censorship resistance or is there any way for you to intervene?

i have no idea what this is about.. our app is not a smart contract same way the youtube app or windows is not a smart contract.

do you have more info so i can answer this better?

Do you plan to work like a Youtube? Can anybody post any content on your blockchain? I thought it works that way and then my question is whether it is possible to remove any content from the blockchain and censor it.

No why would anyone put video on a blockchain? A blockchain is just a very, very slow database, this would be horrible.
Our blockchain is used for the cryptocurrency TUBE. The video data is on IPFS, it's decentralized storage sort of like bittorrent but more advanced. Everyone on bit.tube is a storage node instantly, it works automatically in the browser. That's the magic trick, you don't have to download anything.
As for your question, videos can be unpublished when they violate copyright, we have to abide by the law, we don't want to end up like the pirate bay. But this is a centralization and censorship issue so later we want to put the community in charge of copyright review & reports/disputes so that part is more decentralized. But we have to build that in the next months.

These are basic questions though so please check the FAQ on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/BitTube/comments/8lk12r/faq_frequently_asked_questions/ . If you have any more question let me know.

I don't exactly remember where I found it but there are also some problems when it comes to IPFS. A blockchain is a slow database but it has its advantages as they truly can't be taken down by anyone.
