RE: CSI Steemit - Abuse of the Down Vote
The tracking work you did is very interesting.
Unfortunately, we can always find people who harm others to make a profit, whether selling fake rumors, stealing directly, manipulating markets to bankruptcy and other things like that.
There are times when I would like to have a current version of the old Greek practice of Ostracism (οστρακισμός), where from time to time a person from the community was elected, by direct vote, not to give him a position or task, but to force him to a temporary banishment.
It was done to get people out of play who, with their actions or words, caused the group discomfort and considered themselves dangerous for living together. It could run on officials, merchants and any other citizen ... I think it was an interesting way to apply democracy.
