You have addressed my primary concern for Steemit; the potential for abuse is there. If I post false information, or plagiarize, then I would expect to do poorly. But I am at the mercy of those that may disagree with my opinion and use this to sap away whatever I might earn, which so far is nothing. One whale should not have the power to diminish a hoard of minnows, this is placing too much power in the hands of the few and this is something I am very much against.
