💉 Chinese pharma scandal prompts people to put reports on the Ethereum blockchain

A scandal regarding a Chinese vaccine manufacturer falsifying rabies vaccine production data has sparked a heated debate over the last week, and the Chinese crypto community is suggesting blockchain technology as a potential solution to increase transparency. On Saturday, July 21st, 2018, an investigative article called "The Vaccine King" that documented the scandal was blocked on the Chinese internet. In order to bypass the censorship, coders hashed the entire article into a transaction onto the Ethereum ($ETH) blockchain so that the text is still available to Chinese readers.
