hive.blog actually stole every Steem users' content and user data without their ToS agreement and published on their website. Lucky Hive is too small to ever get attraction from regulators! It's a clear copy-right infringement, and I guess the domain owner should be prepared for a class action when the time comes.
I've never seen any banks did a "community poll". I though a stake based voting is the essence of DPoS right?
Lol, hive stole nothing. You just don't understand how blockchainfork works.

The blockchain maybe didn't (it's probably in a grey area), but their website clearly did.

So every steem frontend is stealing?
Website is just displaying blockchain and if you post something to blockchain, you need to understand that anyone can fork it.

Well, I guess people (or Steemit Inc) can "technically" sue other Steem front-end as well but they wouldn't (it's a civil case anyway). I guess the people (or Steemit Inc) definitely would for hive front-ends. Good luck with that.

No, they couldn't. Steemit Inc does not own the blokchain or have any exclusive rights to post content to it.

Did HIVE used any Steemit's content (except what is already on blockchain, but they have option to delete the posts on HIVE)? I didn't saw any Steemit Inc. logos or anything else that might be protected. Steem as blockchain and condenser (frontend) are both opensource.
