RE: The HIVE FREEDOM PROXY: Over $1.7M Worth of Hive Witness Votes Available For Serious Free Speech Witnesses.

Thanks, there are some interesting statements made in that thread - in particular that they value commenting and engagement over the quality of the actual post. So they are not curating for POB, but POC (proof of commenting) - which is not really a valid metric for POB. If commenting were a sound measure of POB then commenting would be a factor in the reward algorithm. So at the very least it is reasonable to say that all investors and creators need to be aware that the 'code is law' selling point of POB and Hive is being distorted by the POC approach of the major curating projects at present.

Sort:  

Look at the profile I mentioned in the main post:
They curate for OCD, their friend (or they themselves) also curate for curangel. Then, they just circle vote (curate) each other.
The content format is always the same: 3 pictures, xxx number of words, school essay type of content that would get no traction anywhere outside of Hive. It is so obvious, it's incredible.

yes, I can see that - just more to add to the sketchiness of the whole situation!
