What the fuck is it with these downvote bots? That shit could be solved in a day, all one needs to do is track which are the accounts that downvoted a given post, and look into their behaviors. For example looking how quickly the downvotes occur after the post has been created. The data (not necessarily the timestamps) is there. Something like this could also be algorithmically solved.
Bots like this ultimately drive up data traffic needlessly, as they have to continually query the website for updates. And they probably run 24/7 on some computer.
