Firstly, I would like to thank you guys for bringing this to attention again, Reddit has vastly improved its spam recognition filters and the issue of fake upvotes or stories wasn't talked about much till recently, the fact is this is still a major issue and new users should be aware of this.

I would like to ask what is your opinion about abandoned accounts that are hacked then sold, should Reddit have a system to automatically disable inactive accounts?

There are people who accept money to promote certain brands/companies (such as the Burger King post in your article), what can we do about that?

Also, bands brands seem to be gaming the Reddit and Instagram space right now, by paying users to promote them, how do we discourage this?

Reddit's system is good but it needs improvement and further discussion.

Oh, sorry I meant brands.

From what I've seen even a few hundred votes initially can get a post to the front page in no time, the vetting process to promote things to the front page needs to be looked upon.
