This is a prime example of why I am so vigilant/paranoid about any service on Steemit. Now, unlike @crypto.piotr, I do not have enough SP to be worth hijacking, but the principle is the same. I also keep a close eye on https://steemd.com/@redpossum although that can be a bit flaky/laggy in reporting my activity.
In general, I am very relucant to give any of my keys to anyone or anything. In part, I suppose this is because of my background as a network admin, but I do strongly believe that in matters of security, a little paranoia is a good thing. Better to be too suspicious than not suspicious enough.
Dear @redpossum
I can only envy your knowledge.
VERY WELL SAID!
Thx for your comment buddy,
In current days people lose their accounts on different platforms almost on daily basis. Hacks are everywhere. Even giants like Binance has been very lately a victim.
And now, just imagine waking up in the morning and learning that 3rd party (of which I didn't know and couldn't figure out) had an access to my account and using it to upvote some content.
That is some scary shit.
Yours,
Piotr
