(Repeating the same comment from a similar thread)

I do not have any reason to trust @timcliff and he is the one who enraged half the community with his ignorant views on the Justin Sun acquisition of steem. I see this as a threat to network security and financial security on Hive.

I was against freezing Justin Sun's stake. I did support blocking his account from voting for witnesses because of the security risk it posed to the chain, but I did not believe it was right for witnesses to freeze anybody's assets. That is still my position today. I have always believed that the best solution was for the two parties to try and work things out, and if that was not possible, then to go their separate ways (i.e. fork).
