In search of abusers // Weekly Report 279 // 07-08-2026.
Types of abuse, such as plagiarism, AI-generated content, and spam, negatively impact Steem's reputation, devaluing the quality of content and reducing user trust. Therefore, communities must ensure the well-being of the platform by detecting and reporting these cases. On the other hand, automated voting encourages abuse by users seeking to take advantage of the reward system.
Steem Watcher supports communities in maintaining a safe environment on the platform, where the content policy is respected.
- To date, I have reported 2,654 cases of abuse involving 1,358 users.

Below I share the cases that were detected and validated as abuse, most of the accounts are related to a farming community.
The 4 cases are related to plagiarism of content from another platform.
