Rather than ask what a sybil attack is, I just used the search function to find out if it's been asked before, and yes, it has! #515998

So long story short if I had multiple accounts to zap my own content to boost it (and the zaps would go back to me anyways) instead of a 10% bleed to the house, SN would rake a 30% cut. Ouch.

@amaluenda said: "Sybil Attack is an assault where one entity illegitimately assumes multiple identities. This is akin to a single person casting multiple votes in an election by pretending to be many different voters. In the digital realm, this can undermine the network's integrity by allowing an attacker to exert a disproportionate influence. A real-life example of a Sybil attack can be observed in the realm of social media platforms, where it's not uncommon to see entities creating multiple fake accounts to manipulate opinions or trends."
