Its about time, we (humans NOT bots) should make our own upvote, curate content, help fellow steemians. It is this automation that resulted to complication to those affected accounts.

With regards to content, if you think, the content is trash, so don't vote for it, and rather look for post that suits your taste, and give higher % of upvote, so that that content creator can be inspired to produce more quality content.

Flagging other users on the grounds that his/her post is rubbish, is totally unfair if not a form of bullying/anarchy of the powerful(those with bigger sp).

Steemit is for content creation, to express their ideas, feelings, helping others to learn something, by suppressing a person to post his content, is equivalent of killing the criminal even before he can commit a crime.
