What is the Steemit Defense League
The Steemit Defense League is a group of accounts run by the spammer & plagiarist @camillesteemer (aka @mybestnews). Initially, she was flagged for spamming by @abusereports and started to make accounts using the Steemit faucet account creation to flag anyone supporting or commented on an @abusereports post.
Initially, the Steemit Defense League was just the @trollshunter and then @a-steemdefleague used to flag endlessly. In a short time, it grew from 2 flagging accounts to 15 accounts all using the default 15 SP given by the Steemit faucet. Today it is 132 accounts all attempting to abuse the Steemit Inc sign-up process and default delegation.
Delegation removal
Thanks to the redeemer-irredeemables project, I have been able to get all their account's delegation removed reducing their Steem Power to 0.100 Steem, drastically reducing his flagging power as well as his available bandwidth on the network.
I have been gathering accounts of the Steemit Defense League and submitting them on a weekly basis for removal. For a while, there were one to five new accounts on a daily basis. In the last week, there have been no new accounts identified.

Global Blacklist API
I previously announced the Global Blacklist API that is free to use by Steem projects and services. The API exposed blacklists from the following community blacklist projects:
Contribution
If you find any other accounts in the Steemit Defense League attempting to use Steemit Inc delegation to mass flag users, please contact me on Steem.chat, Discord, or reply to this post. I will see to it that their delegation is removed.
If you find any other accounts abusing Steemit Inc delegation, feel free to contact me and I will have a look. I have had delegation removed from multiple faucet abuse rings nearing 200 accounts each.
If you identify spam, plagiarism, or scams please contact me on my Discord server in the #abuse channel.
Vote for @themarkymark as Witness
If you want to see more antispam and anti-abuse initiatives please consider voting @themarkymark as witness to support these projects.
Thanks
Thank you @guiltyparties and @iamstan for assistance in identifying new accounts as they pop up.
