I haven't been hit by this yet. i guess I'm too small of a minnow to be worth their attention.

One of the interesting things, as you point out, is the transparency of the blockchain, and the ability to follow a path from one end to another.

It will be really interesting in about 5 years to do some research to map the various stages the platform goes through - new, boom, bust, rebuilding, bot wars, flag wars, begging wars, comment bot wars, phishing wars, seeing just how much STEEM can fit into Trevor's wallet wars (I'm looking forward to that one ;-) )

It would make for a very interest analysis of human behavior.
