With that much power, defense would not be that much of a problem.

Well, @steemyoda controlled a million steem-power (now 760,000) and they just got downvoted into negative territory (-3)...

And apparently now you can be automatically censored (suppressed) if you're on "blacklists" or if you post using a "moderated tag". Steem is starting to look a lot like a private-club with a capricious and tyrannical leadership team who can make-up-the-rules to fit whatever fleeting whim happens to suit their current mood.

Some form of "punishment" is all well and good, but there must be clearly stated REASONS for it, and those REASONS must be logically coherent.

AND there MUST be some ROAD TO REDEMPTION for the "offenders".
