Datasets:
All likes are from bot accounts?
Clearly a bunch of bot accounts are like-ing this dataset:
What's going on? Is this even allowed?

No, it is not acceptable to create and use multiple bot accounts on Hugging Face for the purpose of artificially increasing your attention, likes, or visibility.
According to Hugging Face’s Content Policy, the following actions are specifically prohibited: 🚩
- Abuse or interference with Hugging Face services, including using unauthorized bot APIs or remote management tools.
- Spam, which includes excessive bulk activity or disrupting user experience.
- Incentivizing manipulation of Hugging Face Hub metrics, such as exchanging rewards for likes or artificially boosting metrics.
Even if the Terms of Service do not explicitly mention "multiple accounts," using multiple bot accounts to manipulate engagement clearly constitutes platform abuse and metric manipulation, which is prohibited. Such activities can lead to moderation actions, including removal of your content or account suspension.
I believe this should be cross-checked. My main concern is that many other valuable works are getting buried on the Hub due to this activity, leaving many great contributions unnoticed.
I hope this can be verified so we can determine whether this activity is genuine or not. Fake like farming should be stopped for the betterment of the community.
