You're ignoring what I said in an attempt to mock me, instead of having a conversation (as one expects from censors.)

1. There is a publicly traded company called "Hive Blockchain" - that existed long before our fork away from Steem.
2. There is a CIA program, designed to give them more access & control of people's computers, launched (publicly at least) in 2010, called Hive.

That makes the naming of our fork either an intentionally bad choice, or an unintentionally bad choice - pretty much guarantees that we lose the SEO battle, and that people will continue talking about this being a CIA operation (especially with folks trying to cleanse it of anything the government doesn't want said.)

To be clear, I'm not saying that this Hive is that CIA Hive (which launched half a decade before steem even did), I'm saying that "Hive" was an extremely poor choice of name, in part because of that CIA operation.

I raised all of these issues at the time Hive was named. My current job involves naming businesses and branding at times - it's something I am well versed at. The crowd at the time simply ridiculed any dissenting voices and so here we are.

There really are at least two threads of humanity at this time, with widely different understandings of what is transpiring on Earth - it would be healthy for the two to understand each other, unite and improve harmony/peace. However, that would require all involved to get down from high horses, walk out from behind defence mechanisms and stop propagating the divide and conquer psychology that we are all imprinted with at an early age by those seeking to dominate the global tax farm.

No matter what, everyone is going to their right place - though many don't know what that means yet. Hive is a symbol of free will expression and possibilities - so those who seek to maintain those will likely find ways to recreate the potential on Hive, whether it be using Layer 2 or forks. Numerous Hive whales know this and are basically waiting to find out which option works best overall before choosing their own path.
