Can you elaborate on what this means? Sorry if that is a dumb question. If you can explain it maybe I can make it happen :)

The way I understood it, the issue is that the author doesn't manage his account anymore and you are pushing his content instead. There is fear you are hustling revenue away from him or he is trying to squeeze a secondary rewards for the same content.
So what i said it's that he can 'sign away' the control to you through the Blockchain.

That is interesting. For now we will just decline payments unless they verify it is ok via a backlink from the description of the original video, and if they ok it then 90% to them and 10% to us. If they do not have a Hive account they will need to create one or the videos we post from them will have declined payout disabled. I am going to make a public spreadsheet of all creators and who are declined, who gets rewards and where etc for full transparency for the Hive community. We will only get rewards (10%) if the creator verifies and has a Hive account where we can send the 90%.
