I'll make an addendum for a non-traditional field, "governing". This is really part of the "security" aspect. Using block-chain may be a way for governments to open certain record pools (registrations, statistics, etc.) for public scrutiny.
Even with a central authority a block-chain can ensure the integrity of records, thus preventing corruption, both in the data sense and political sense. It gives the public a way to monitor the data over time.
For example, if your land registries were with an open-block chain (being done somewhere I think), the public would have a permanent record and would see all changes to the registry. It's a complete open log of all DB transactions in this sense.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
