DTube opens a witness node on STEEM

No problem. You are one of the only witnesses who has always been there who has been rather redistributor. But unfortunately, you have been there too long to understand that you have created a caste with undue annuities. It is the opposite of capitalism.
You know, we are French and the discourse of the common good and preferable censorship in this sense there, we understand it. But I doubt that the TOP 20 of witness steem are in this ideology.

You have decided unilaterally to freeze accounts. This is contrary to the central idea of ​​blockchain. All this because the wind has turned for you ... Honestly apart from all the other points, on this point, you have lost all credibility.

I'm even talking about the fact that HIVE is a registered trademark ... amateur work.

Hive is not a registered trademark the same way that hair or pencil is not. It is just a common word in english. The trademark is for HIVE Blockchain Technologies LTD not Hive. Legally you cannot own a common word in any language. They have no case.

This reminds me of when McDonalds (the fast food restaurant) tried to sue someone in Scotland for using their familly name to refer to their estate. Suffice to say that didn't go well for McDonalds (the fast food chain).

EDIT: actually the case I was referring to was in the state of Illinois.

The real Ronald McDonald (US)
The company waged an unsuccessful 26-year (as of 2001) legal action against McDonald's Family Restaurant, which opened in 1956 in Fairbury, Illinois and is run by a man whose real name is Ronald McDonald.[23] McDonald ultimately continued to use his name on his restaurant despite the company's objections.[24]

Honesty do you know? creating a blockchain with a large community on an existing name is a mistake. Final point.

Don't use disputed names. I will give you a good name. "pupa"
This name is still centralized. Because I am loyal to the queen bee. A good name to write instead of "hive".
Oh, this is what I'm really worried about. I'm not making fun of you.

Hi there

I've been reading through many comments related to new hive chain and I've seen your comment too. Many users are being torn, however majority seem to be moving to new hive.

Are you fully moving there or will you stay on both chains? Just curious. I'm trying to figure out what to do myself.

I am moving to hive, I started my powerdown on steem a few hours ago. Although I will always have my steem account so I could use it in the future.

Big Thx for your reply. I think i will stick around on both chains for time being.

I also figured that you may find this post interesting and worth your time:
