I am doing what Hive is designed to facilitate and only doing it because I was given a large proxy without asking for it. Since I have been given the power to use wisely, I need to put time into researching and actually using it wisely. As long as I am going to be doing that, I may as well maximise the effort by inviting others to proxy to me.
Everyone who holds HP has skin in the game, but might not have enough time or generate enough value from their smaller stake to do the research and to maintain an up to date witness list. As long as the person doing the proxy voting is on top of the situation, it should actually result in a more secure chain, rather than a less secure chain. How many people still have witness votes set for totally inappropriate characters because they aren't up to date?
If you see me doing malicious or dangerous things with the stake then by all means raise hell. The fact is that you won't find anything more than the occasional restrained downvote from my account over 5 years. No scams, no genuine abuse.. Just a full user guide for Hive, numerous posts helping people, sharing info and generally trying to help shape Hive into a form that can both gain mass acceptance and also solve human problems at the same time.
Arguments against humans organising for shared self interest and common goals needs to be solid, but I don't see any solid arguments here - just clutching at straws.
