I hear ya. I tried not to make it personal either the best I could. Ownership is everything. A sports franchise with the best players on the planet can fall apart if the ownership is bad. Values and responsibility to actually own the business from end-to-end is what a real business owner does. Clearly, the only end most appear to care about is the Steem faucet end.
Terms of service in their fine print is their only defense for now, but that’s nonsense to me. If they don’t enforce it, it’s just fluff. They should hire people to approve those posts they service to protect the integrity of their “business.” If they don’t care in that sense, it’s not a real business.
When people know they’re doing harm to a society, and they feel the income outweighs the detriment, AND they hide, well that makes my Steem boil.
