RE: A hole in the Blockchain: Steemconnect? (Please take the time it is important)
Certainly worrying. I know @holoz0r and @thegoliath are using dlive.
You guys had any strange new posts in your feeds?
Many apps use Steemconnect and as far as I can tell, they can all at least follow and potentially post as those who sign in. It is just @dlive who have been caught out (so far) using the privileges badly. But it could run very deep if the possible loophole isn't closed soon.
And the more of those apps you use, the harder it is to point the finger at the culprit.
In this case, at least we know who followed on your behalf.
Well now that the cat is out of the bag, it is likely that some bad actors will take note and exploit it.
I haven't had anything new or bizarre in my feed. I've also not seen an increase in my "Following"numbers that haven't been by my authority.
