negativity towards "airdrop farmers" is misplaced and biased. hundreds of thousands (millions?) of people all over the world have decided that doing microwork for protocols is their best path to economic prosperity. that is incredible and should be celebrated. it's on us to enable them to contribute positively.

note that this perspective does not include people who are fraudulently impersonating / simulating real users - I think this can and should be managed with sybill resistance tools. that said, our research suggests that this is a minority of this activity - there are tons of real human beings who want to contribute!

Pretty much this. I'm in favour of widening economic prosperity, but much of this gets captured by farm shop owners and human traffickers in SEA, not the actual people that need it.

Just check out all the accounts with lime-green profile pictures on FC. They're following, liking, recasting, one-click minting, collecting followers who don't pay attention. I believe they're all farm/bot accounts, but they're quite varied in their behavior and not obviously suspicious.
