This is true and one of the shortcomings of Hive as it stands now. One of the main fixes for this is better distribution, which takes time unfortunately. I think other tools should be implemented to mitigate this possibility. Easy visibility to users of the "why" for a downvote, along with some way to measure the veracity of the "why" could help. E.g. all downvotes need a reason on chain. Downvoter selects "This is spam" or "This is plagarism". Other users can then see why it was downvoted and check. If a certain threshold of user verification isn't reached, the downvote is auto removed. Only works (if it does actually work) if there is no option to downvote without reason.

I like this - but there should also be an "other reason" field which can be filled in manually. For example if a killer were to do as you mentioned, or something else illegal or extremely offensive occurred.
And let's not forget about the scammers and hackers. I think we would all love to censor dangerous content?
!PIZZA and !ALIVE
Right, I was just making suggestions not a comprehensive list of reasons. But seriously, if there were a killer on here I think reasons for downvoting would be pretty low on our priority list. Somebody might want to call the police lol.
I would think they would already know, but the devs should definitely be working with them. Can't hand Hive over to the serial killer types!
