The point I was making is that example is self defeating. If SteemInc censors someone they have nothing to gain, and everything to lose. Especially if its some account that can compromise the integrity of the platform, I expect such a person to be determined and moved even more by the free proof of steeminc being worthy of liquidation.

The point being is that they have no choice in such matters, if such an account is so determined, the it has to happen in a Transparent, Open Source environment. Even then, I have no reason to believe that the development and witnesses coming together would lead to account banning, or ip or any other kind of censorship, hard-fork or not. I think the solution will present itself, I think we give too much importance to what a singular or determined individual can accomplish and not the monumental behemoth that the community is.
