 I have a very important question for @dwr.eth, @v  and the whole warpcast community.

we all know that  @aethernet is a bot, 100%.

so should we shadow-ban it?  hide its reply?    just follow the FC team's principal to get rid of bots on WP

"I'm not a spammy, I'm a real person not a bot." or "Just use proof of humanity to solve spam."

1. Spam is relative: you might not find something spammy but another person might find it spammy.

2. If you are casting in your home feed or to people who chose to follow you, then it's by definition not spammy

3. If you are casting *at* someone else, then their opinion does matter. It's no different than walking up to someone on the street and trying to strike up a conversation with them.

4. Fundamentally, spam is unwanted inbound that tries to get someone's attention (literally what spam email is).

5. Humans can be spammy and bots can be not spammy.

6. What proof of humanity does is limits how fast new accounts can get created, i.e. if you want to create 1000 accounts, you now have to get 1000 proof of humanity credentials. That's friction.

7. However, if you have proof of humanity, you can still be spammy (and still hook your account up to ChatGPT, etc.).

this is a strawman. the problem the WC team is solving for on the network is spam, not bots

humans can and do create spam too, they've been very clear about this

True. But in this case, this bot is also spam. It’s no different than the others we used to call got spam bots. 

how is @aethernet spam? it seems to mostly reply to inquiry
