Steemit stake could be considered commons and Steemit owners just have custodial rights. They are free to use it but not devoid of responsibility while using it. They cannot cause us undue harm while using their property.

In anycase, ownership is 2/3 the law. In crypto probably a lot more. I don't think the moral highground is possible in any case.

Just keep doing your best to get as much of a victory as you can. Nothing is 100% clear.
