Bid-bots are a free market force. The measure goes after bid-bots by making curation more profitable, making delegating to bid-bots less attractive — also, free downvotes for people who abuse. I don't speak for anyone but myself when I say I will be using my free downvotes each day on trending bid-bot abuse and I plan on having more firepower when that HF hits.

Thank you for this reply @theycallmedan. I agree with everything you said. I think all it takes is the right culture - enough people with stake using their downvotes to fix the problem, which could be a more powerful free market force. I really hope that the trending page can go back to being much more organic instead of every spot being sold to the highest bidder.
BRO I'm in the process of buying a ton of steem just for flagging U & the whole WCN! LOL I'll be flagging @theycallmedan too! Cause he's a bidbot abuser too?

Thanks 4 pointing out @theycallmedan, I love to flag him! He pisses me off for some reason, never could really figure out why. Connecting the dots! lol he is a big bidbot abuser that's why? Circle jerk comment offender also! lol P.S. I would have erased this, however I already down-voted yesterday when I was low on power. Oh well can't win um all. Was too lazy to un-vote/revote this am I guess! I'm sure there will be plenty more in the future where that came from! Cheers! lol
