Is content moderation necessary evil?
Content moderation can have a disproportionate effect on already-marginalized groups of people. Content moderation often results in mass take-downs of speech on social media from a marginalized group of people, while more dominant and well-funded parties could benefit from more nuanced approaches in their communications on major social media platforms. When a platform decides to enforce certain rules, unfortunately, those rules tend to only be applied to marginalized groups, which shouldn't be the case.

There is no place to hide: Will NFT be taxable?
NFT stands for non-fungible token. It's a fancy term for a unique digital asset that is associated with blockchain technology. Regardless of the recent ups and downs of cryptocurrencies, businesses relating to NFTs have rapidly expanded. It encompasses both tangible and intangible assets such as music, fine art, sports, hard jewelry, virtual goods and more. NFTs will likely continue their double digit growth in the coming years despite the recent troubles with cryptocurrencies.

Future of religion in metaverse
Tech companies are investing in the metaverse and recognizing the importance of religious communities. Some have already been regularly meeting in the metaverse and conducting religious rituals like baptism. The metaverse will play a key role in religious communities soon. Many questions remain, though, as to whether that relationship will be beneficial for the religious communities or merely help the metaverse platform companies prioritize profits in the name of religious faith at any cost.

This Christmas, I pray for your safe return, my friend
Working for a nonprofit organization (NPO) gives people an opportunity to make a positive impact. However, identifying the right cause and creating an NPO is a different story. An entrepreneur is someone willing to launch a new venture and accept full responsibility for running the organization. It is a rewarding experience if everything goes well as planned.

Idea is cheap, execution is expensive
There is no shortage of remarkable ideas. Real work always comes with timely execution. Ideas are just theories if entrepreneurs do not spit them out. What makes the difference is an entrepreneur's will to execute and carry on no matter what the circumstances are.

Strategic decoupling in key tech sectors: another pressure point
Decoupling means the separation of previously tightly linked systems so that those systems can operate independently. In layperson's terms, decoupling refers to an economy that would be able to grow or shrink without corresponding external factors or other economies.

License to die: Life with dignity
The death of Queen Elizabeth II brought condolences from global leaders and people from all walks of life. Her death has prompted the memories of her majestic influence, which finally came to an end after 70 years of her reign. Her legacy will remain strong. Like all others, we will miss her. What makes it sad, though, is that it is only a few months after Great Britain celebrated the queen's Platinum Jubilee with many spectacular events to mark the 70 years of her excellent service to the nation.

Philanthropy redefined with crypto
Philanthropy is huge. In America alone, philanthropic donations reached $485 billion in 2021. Despite the uncertainty about the continued spread of COVID-19, the total amount of philanthropic giving grew by 4 percent year-on-year. Philanthropy is driven by mission, purpose and passion. Donors are focused on building a more inclusive and equitable society. They also aim to drive systemic change and sustainable social progress.

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs: power of generating value from digital assets
Intellectual property (IP) is a powerful tool to give a sense of ownership to the original creator. Hence, intellectual property has to be well protected in law. Oftentimes, small ventures lack the resources to effectively protect their intellectual property. Even if the modern concept of intellectual property has evolved since the 17th century, primarily in Europe, intellectual property law could date far back. In medieval Europe, for example, guilds or associations of artisans were granted authority by governors to regulate their respective industries

Longing for higher power and spiritual values
Nothing is certain but death. People increasingly respond to their deepest human needs. We have a natural need to feel connected to the world, to others and religious traditions. Anthropology, philosophy or neuroscience can't simply answer the question of whether a higher power really exists. We tend to look for patterns, structures and causes for everything. But there is no single right answer for our divine purposes and our hopes for a higher power.
