And this is why I don't like Lunduke. It took me only a while to realize he's as much for cancel culture as the people he attacks. And now he wants to cancel robots? That's racist.

But I like bottling stuff and I like not having to show my ID everywhere on the internet. For all you know I am a bot. Beet boop. And I like it that way.

The internet has always had bots. In fact it's a bot first environment. We just sometimes let humans pilot those bots in a way that we think those bots are people.

Also he said he wants someone to come up with a solution. Easy. We don't even need that much technology and definately don't need a government mandate for it. Theory: Someone needs to know I'm not a bot. The question is who? Who needs to know? I can prove I'm not a bot to that specific person voluntarily if both of us calculate it's in our mutual interest to go through those steps.

There is no information exchange I could do with a site to verify I'm human that I couldn't do with an individual. Now if I don't want them to have my details we can have a third party vouch. If someone is in the business of vouching for others I can then prove I'm not a bot even more efficiently by using them.

But the key thing is it is all voluntary. It doesn't require a site check the id of every request that comes in.

FYI, how the fuck do I make this work with search. I can't be doing expensive ID verification on every legitimate bot request. If those search bots can see the content then so can a human. "Just verify every request that comes to your site" really is the low information take.
