Seeking Alpha Applauds The SEC's Actions To Stomp Out Stock Promotion

" 1. Ticker monitoring and blacklisting: We proactively monitor websites that keep tabs on stocks that are being promoted. When an article on a stock that is suspected of promotion is submitted, the article must be reviewed by a managing editor. We have also blacklisted certain stocks from publication altogether in order not to fall prey to promotion.
2. IP tracking: We deployed IP tracking in our content management system ("CMS"
. We now cross-check article submissions against each other.
3. ID verification: In cooperation with identity verification provider IDology, we deployed a system to validate contributors’ identities.
4. Zero-tolerance policy: A contributor found to have cooperated with stock promoters is no longer allowed to publish, no exceptions. We also report this to the SEC.
5. Leveraging our audience: We created an email hotline (integrity@seekingalpha.com) for any reader who suspects potential manipulation to email us confidentially. All reports of potential manipulation are investigated promptly.
How about we flood them with emails indicating Mako as a manipulator?
Seems wrong that one should be allowed to bash and profit but promoting and profiting is targeted for enforcement. At least stock promotion money goes towards drug development for bios. What good is done with the bash for cash money? Yacht manufacturing?
