Is chainsquad taking the users for granted

Today while going through https://steemit.com/trending I was surprised to see @chainsquad post making around 1760 payout. $1760 payout is big for a post that is barely 4 hours old. But I was even more surprised to see the blue upvote icon as I had niether upvoted the post manually nor had I set up a rule for autoupvote. I had recently read about the service being discontinued and so I thought of reading the article to know further details.

I read the article but was still not convinced why it received such a high payout. I scrolled through the comments and realised what was going on.

Chainsquad was using the posting keys to upvote this post.

Though I felt that chainsquad has misused the posting keys after reading their comment I realised that we had given them that rights when signed their T&C.

Everybody knows that nobody reads T&C

But this incident has highlighted what will happen when give away our posting keys without taking enough precautions.

If you are reading this and you had also used Streemian you might need to revoke the rights. As you can see from the image you can visit https://v2.steemconnect.com/revoke/@streemian to revoke.

I am just thinking what would have happened if we had not used SteemConnect and entrusted them with our posting keys. I know we are not suppose to do that but many new users wouldn't think so much before sharing. In such case may be resetting the password form https://steemit.com/@gokulnk/password will help but I am not sure. Has somebody tried this before?

Now back to what @chainsquad did. Their actions have invited flak from all the bigwigs of Steem. Check out the following.

and this

Lets hope by the payout time this post doesn't get any rewards. I value streemians contributions and would be more than willing to give out rewards to them but just not in this fashion thats all.
