I support bots because they represent freedom of choice.

It mirrors life: We can be authentic, build connections, and love people or we can chase money unscrupulously and burn bridges along the way.

Bots give us the freedom to decide. We can use them with honor or we can use them only in self interest.

To me the beautiful thing about the Steemit community is a lot of this comes out in the wash. My hope is that over time the community aspect wins out and we're incentivized to use bots for good.

I love Steemvoter to upvote some of my favorite authors. It makes sure they get my support even if I'm not around.

Cheers. Thanks for your time.
