I think the promoted posts should be labelled as such as well. I nice little icon beside the headline(much like what we'd see with a 100% power up post) would be sufficient. That way, content consumers cannot be misled by advertising and instances of false advertising. I believe an open and honest approach to advertising here would benefit everyone.

All forms of advertising on the internet now are typically labelled as such. I believe Steemit should get with the program. If I'm watching Youtube, the ads are labelled so I don't sit there watching something that has nothing to do with what I wanted to watch in the first place. I wanted to see cat videos. Why is this guy telling me about Wix.com and where is the goddamn cat?
