PLEASE KEEP IN MIND
If all a robot will do to check ID is collect a phone number with SMS capability, and an email; a bot can produce that quickly.
I can open as many steemit accounts as I like with just a few spam email and eastern euro web sms sites.. no registration required to relay email and sms these days. May not be enough to keep the bots out..
what? You need only 0.5 Steem / account and CLI.... it is a blockchain, lol

That is true. However if we can get menacing evil bots like this then it can happily kill all those other bots :O)
If everyone can open multiple accounts and vote for themselves, then what's the use of Steemit? The hardfork 20 needs to be real legit indiscriminating people from bots.
It will be a huge ponzi scheme. Those suckers who bought Steem with their money will be totally screwed.
I disagree. Anyone can open multiple accounts right now and vote for themselves. To give yourself any kind of money via an upvote you have to have steempower. So if someone opens up another account they will have to load it with steempower or its pointless.
And if they load it with steempower, well, its their money. They will have had to get it from somewhere
