Are you comfortable with one person being in control of that list? Since you are that person, I suppose you are at the moment.

Would you be comfortable if @joe.public was that person?

No one seeking censorship resistance should allow this to continue to be controlled by anyone except through public debate and application of the HPS mechanism.

Will you support the limitation of adding malicious actors to the list only through the HPS mechanism, and enabling folks to get off the list as outlined above?

Also, you have control of it now. Absent compelling evidence of malicious acts, I recommend removing @joe.public from that list without delay. My understanding is his only fault was in replying to spam with the purpose of discouraging it.

Certainly that does not warrant being censored as a threat to Hive.

I haven't heard any other allegation of wrongdoing committed by @joe.public. Unless there is some other reason to censor them, I reckon integrity requires removing that sanction forthwith.

I have not heard any other allegations either.

I reckon integrity requires removing that sanction forthwith.

I say you reckon correctly, justly, rightly, and with Logos. These Abuses of others make credibility and integrity, quite impossible, the way I see it. This one is by far not the only, but it is quite heinous of an injustice.

It bodes poorly for the survival of Hive in a world where censorship if burgeoning everywhere. We see what has happened on Steem since the fork, and it is useful to remember that no new code or capabilities were necessary to do any of those things on Steem, and that Hive is just a copy of Steem code. Every bit of the censorship, frozen accounts, and etc., is possible right now on Hive.
