RE: Hey @anyx, I want to propose @cheetah Bot Version 2 to Improve Steem
One such cut and paste right here... You can see his attitude, and he's making $300 - $500 a post now from other people's content, not sharing the payout and clearly does not give a fuck. It's not legal in-spite of what he says and certainly not ethical and is a liability to Steemit. This is why youtube polices their videos so heavily.

YouTube's police ends up being the content producers or owners... The Movie Studios, the Record Labels, and the corporate entities who protect their stockholders' interests.
Steem could have one of these knock on our door someday. Will it be a Steemit, Inc. headquarters? Will it be on the noob's door? I don't know. Flaunt your wantonness around long enough, and you will get a little bill... except it won't be a Benjamin in your stocking... it will be a cease and desist.
But that's just an appeal to a parade of horribles.
The right thing to do is to clean up our act as much as possible... before Steem explodes and we get an influx of scamming noobs that scam. Or stealing baddies that steal. Or the trolling trolls that cut-and-paste.
I have two followups to this post:

Yep Steemit need to remove offenders and people need to ask for permission.
