Yeah - it's the usual nonsense. "Selective" data that actually proves what is happening - as admitted by the people doing it. It's now "harassment" to identify harmful behavior but it's perfectly acceptable, and not at all harmful, for whales to collusively siphon rewards through sham accounts. Good luck convincing potential "investors" of that.

I know. That's exactly why we decided to put this information out there for everyone to see. Everyone knows or assumes that it's happening, so we're just compiling the information and making it available. This is obviously not going to be well-received by those who are engaging in the sham - and it was also understood by us. We know they're going to do whatever they can to try to keep us quiet and to try to damage our user reputation. What they don't seem to realize is that they're damaging their own actual reputation - as well as that of the platform in general - by retaliating like they do when the information is presented.
For all of the crying about how presenting data is "bad for the platform," there seems to be a complete avoidance of condemning those who are truly damaging the credibility of Steemit - even when they actually admit to some of it after denying all of it for weeks. Yet we're the ones that aren't credible and are subjected to retaliation and personal attacks?
And we wonder why the amount of active users is so low...why attrition is so high. Yeah - it's my fault.
