I see a lot of people voicing concerns but in the end people have the choice of whether they want to use this blacklist or not. Just like everyone has the choice to downvote whatever they want for whatever reason they want, same goes for voting.
We're all free to do as we like. Me? I'm to lazy to bother checking if people post on both chains, steem is dead to me.
yes, everyone has a choice.
But by a witness making a post and a tool like this - it is sending a message. If he would make a tool to look for people that only post to Hive - fine. But the whole blacklist thing is a form of bullying and trying to control people's behavior.
How can you control peoples behaviour when you have to choose to use this tool? Sure he's a witness, if you dislike what he's done unvote him. People aren't going to just blindly follow people if they didn't actually agree with them in the first place.
