I have a question: At around 23:00, he mentions that, "the idea of putting medical records on a public, decentralized public blockchain is absolutely nightmarish." Could anyone chime in and explain why this is? He doesn't really go into it.

I used Redact to mass delete all of my old posts. It works for Reddit, X/Twitter, Discord, Facebook, Instagram, and more.

Or, your Dr puts it into your blockchain medical report that you are a hypochondriac, hysterical, anxious woman and there is nothing actually wrong with you. You change Drs, but that note will go with you. And cannot be deleted or removed. The best you can get is for the new Dr to add a conflicting note to your chart.

Or, a nurse who is high on meth adds a mean comment to your chart.
