How do we know that the people on reddit aren’t talking to bots? Now, or in the future? what about lemmy?

Even If I am on a human instance that checks every account on PII, what about those other instances? How do I know as a server admin that I can trust another instance?

I don’t talk about spam bots. Bots that resemble humans. Bots that use statistical information of real human beings on when and how often to post and comment (that is public knowledge on lemmy).

    The dystopian part is being required by law to use a specific form of authentication tied to your real identity by the government in order to access the internet.

      So to play devils advocate. Chase bank doesnt require FIDO2 authentication and allows sms or email mfa.

      This allows people to easily hack your banking accounts and steal your cash. How would you secure that authentication process or what reason do banks have to increase their website security to protect your financial accounts?

      Regulation is not dystopian. This law wouldn’t be dystopian. Having bots pose as humans to influence opinion is dystopian imo.
