..and to be IN-TOPIC what worries me about Steemit aren't much the bots, but people with a bit of reputation which abuse of it to push fake news (or old news). Here is and example https://steemit.com/money/@joshsigurdson/bank-accounts-seized-in-greece-as-system-comes-crashing-down#@luigi-tecnologo/re-luigi-tecnologo-re-joshsigurdson-bank-accounts-seized-in-greece-as-system-comes-crashing-down-20170913t195254643z the funny part is that you can make money commenting on it
