I created this app inspired by placebobutton.com website (see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9686357). It somehow motivated me to do it after I pushed button titled "I will create placebo button android app today" :)

The app allows to share buttons and saves history of all buttons created. If you have any suggestions for this app - please let me know. I hope you will enjoy it and the button will bring you many benefits :)

It is reasonable if the government wants to kill the tor network and start censoring internet, by scaring people off running tor nodes. If they succeed in this case more countries may follow, so it is important to win this.

Once you have bitcoins in a wallet (and internet connection) you can send them to ANYONE in the world with a bitcoin wallet. It can't be more simple. And getting a wallet or wallet service is easy.

You also not need to read and agree to new terms of service every few months (how many people actually read them?). No need to worry you're account will be blocked, that the payment service will stop working and so on.

I don't think this is such an effort to filter offers, you would just need once to setup a preference to not show certain type of offers you're not interested in (e.g. show only top 20%).

What do you mean by quality of the offers? Maybe you just want to eliminate cheap competition which has better quality/price ratio?

There may be demand for cheap services in developing countries and there may be people willing to work for such money there. Wouldn't you want to receive cheap service yourself? Cheap doesn't always need to mean poor quality.

If someone wants quality work done he is probably aware he won't get it for 1 BTC, but maybe it would be enough for him.

Bitcoin was created for freedom of exchange and any limitations would hurt the market.

I don't use AdBlock, but FlashBlock which disables all flash content. I don't have anything against ads that's why I stopped using AdBlock, but I need to block the most annoying ads like fullscreen, sound, following mouse. I only whitelist sites like youtube and other which have "normal" ads.
