Maybe in the case of FB they would buy up everything with each new fork just to kill any movement to decentralized platforms?

And then it could be forked again...and again...and again.

It is like Microsoft trying to stamp out versions of Linux...it didnt happen because open source software could be reproduced unlimited numbers of times.

The same with a blockchain. We could for it 100 times if we had to, each time forcing FB to buy everything up. And dont forget, on the open market, with word out what it was trying to do, the price would zoom.

It is more effort than it is worth.

Of course, let us make no mistake, Hive is no threat to Facebook's business model at this time. We are not even on the radar as far as they are concerned.
