The natural side-effect of the whole Steem ecosystem is that it will invariably attract malicious people and shitty bots. Thats fine.
Whats not fine are things like dedicated and organised attacks on Steem (especially within Youtube) to attack Steem directly - and what we stand for behind it.
I'm less than a week old in the Steem-bath but i love this place and will protect whats being built.
