As someone interested in both sides of security game theory, what exactly helps stop bots? I grew up playing RuneScape and hating bots before making r/Artisanvideos and hating them even more. I’ve always wondered if it’s a matter of automatically detecting precise repetitive patterns or just specific giveaway signs.
Judging from other comments my first reply got, possibly lax registration of bots. I didn’t personally check any of those instances, so I have no clue, really.
seal.cafe, cawfee.club and sleepy.cafe sure got welcoming names. Given the number of defederations, I doubt the contents are anything like the names.
Most of them were automatically defederated for not having adequate protection against bot signups, that got nothing to do with sketchy content.

If the bots are welcomed and they don’t have good enough moderation, this is just sketchy content with extra steps.
An online cafe dedicated to harvesting baby seal fur SEEMED like a good idea…
I have an idea… A cafe for baby seal fur from self defence only… That’s a great idea!
