Saidit is being infiltrated and manipulated by paid shills. This is how the fall of Reddit started and if we aren't vigilant, the same could happen here.

All that does is prevent you from seeing the shill's posts. It doesn't prevent the shill from disrupting conversations, which is their job.

    The fix is for saidit admins to hand out some IP bans to the worst offenders

    The worst offenders have infinite IPs, unique with every page request, that are not bound to any range or subnet. So IP bans are happening to them, even to entire ranges of IPs, but it accomplishes basically nothing, because they just make another completely different one.
