What can even be done at this point?
Status Quo:
> internet becomes even more overrun by more intelligent bots
> 4chan has been more than susceptible to bot posting for the 5 years ( https://youtu.be/efPrtcLdcdM?t=538 )
> Amazon and other large retailers product reviews flooded with 5star reviews.
> Social media flooded with bots trying to mass-influence public opinion
Digital ID:
> No privacy, everything tied to your RL identity
> Website owners can at least try to confirm (?) human users from bots
> Retailers will likely implement systems that allow bots
> Social medial will probably be quiet until someone figures out a way to flood the sites with stolen IDs
I don't see a way out.
Its just going to be advertisement and influence bots flooding until we all go back to finding friends IRL. And holy fuck that's an exhausting experience.
