Elon has proposed the idea of having people verify they arent bots by paying $8 per month.
So he is saying that bots cannot (unable to) pay? I like Elon Musk in general, but this idea is very stupid. Transactions can easily automated. Actually it is one of the easiest things to automate.
But the point is spammers aren’t going to pay. It will work as intended. But it’s outdated and Elon is admitting he wants digital ID end goal. It’s not good that I agree. But obviously it will work to stop bot scams.
Are you sure? Their owners can easily set it up. Probably their bots generate much more than $8 USD per month for them, so it would worth for them. But hopefully no one is not going to pay. There are other, better ways to verify that the user is human, and not a bot.
