I don't think psudonyms are an issue, but verifying that a user is an actual person vs an AI chatbot is absolutely something that every popular social media platform will need to tackle at some point.

The bots will just come up with something fake to scan and carry on as they always have.
Like a real human eye? Is this how Skynet starts?
schrieb am 20. Juni 2025, 23:34 zuletzt editiert vonWouldn't it just be reverse engineering what the scanner does? If you have a close enough copy of thesnanning tech couldn't you have a bot rapidly iterate eyeballs in some form till it can pass the real version a couple times and repeat with the iteration process?

Your iris/fingerprint scanner is only secure until someone is willing to rip out an eyeball/finger.

If a moderator decides messages from country X are problematic, then they can flag/block them for other users. It only requires carefully measuring ping times and basically involves banning traffic from places that can't achieve certain minimum pings to certain trusted servers.
