HIVE stole millions of contents of STEEM, this is wrong.

False, not a single Steem was stolen by Hive.
The theft pfunk refers to happens right here : https://steemd.com/b/43536278

HIVE stole the name of the HIVE blockchain, stole contents (user data and posts) from steem, and then stole users' HIVE tokens. https://hiveblocks.com/b/41818752#0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
LOL.. HIVE theives are complaining.

"HIVE" is a generic existing word that IS NOT TRADEMARKED.
"Hive Blockchain Technologies Ltd" is simply fishing for attention and has no legal case against HIVE.
The link you provided does not show the theft of a single STEEM, which is what this issue on the STEEM repository is about.
Not receiving a free gift is not justification for theft of existing private property valued in the millions of dollars and your repeated attempts to confuse the issue do not change this.
If you can't understand the difference, don't respond and let the adults have a discussion.

[hfang1989]

Oh i see. you stole the name just like you stole the contents of STEEM and try to justify, and also confuse the others.
I agree that you stealing the millions of HIVE tokens should not be discussed in this issue.
It is too bad that you can't understand what you are doing is wrong.

For something to be stolen, it first has to be owned by someone.
"Hive Blockchain Technologies Ltd" does not OWN the generic term "Hive", therefore it cannot be stolen from them.

As for the post contents, they are all still owned by the original creators. Only the original creators can edit or remove their own posts (unlike Steem, where anyone who angers the new dictator gets their account censored, posts hidden and funds stolen).

I'm glad you agree that your comment was completely irrelevant to this issue in the Steem repository - we're discussing the arbitrary theft of millions of Steem from stakeholders (not why your feelings are hurt and why you feel that makes blatant theft OK).
