Community Poll - Blacklist Policy

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.
