Why Arweave is both censorship-resistant and private

AI summary of the linked article

Arweave is presented as a system that gives website visitors privacy and gives content creators censorship resistance, by storing content on a layer-1 blockchain and serving it through gateways rather than centralized servers. Storage runs on modified Proof of Work using RandomX, which the article says Monero also uses, and customers pay for 100 years of storage that funds nodes storing the data. The gateway CDN is run by a separate project, ar.io, which uses Proof of Stake with IO tokens, and gateways that serve malicious content can have their stake slashed. The author states a personal disagreement with the voting-based method for judging malicious gateways, preferring a purely mathematical comparison of files.
