It's MOBSTER ETHICS.

Automatic self-voting should be the norm (if you don't vote at all, you get your share automatically added to your wallet). That way everyone gets a reward proportional to their own investment. Then people will only vote for posts they REALLY REALLY LIKE.

I have nothing against self voting, even if large stakeholders
do it. If that "breaks" the system, then the system is flawed.

I agree, when I first encountered the "self-voting" police, I knew something was fundamentally "upside-down".
