Prediction: It'll be surprisingly difficult for Mom and Pop to provide sufficient proof of identity and surprisingly easy for mega corporations to do so. There will be a way to report suspected abusers that heavily skews in this direction. It'll basically be like IP enforcement on YouTube.
- coffeefirst 7y agoNot likely, but the problem requires context that Google isn't going to share. In the past few years we've seen bad actors basically automate their process. They expect to be banned. They spin up an account, run scams and malware, get blacklisted, rinse and repeat with a new domain, account, and just enough changes to beat the automated filters within an hour later. What this does is add a ton of friction to that game. It doesn't even have to be perfect to make a huge difference, it just needs to be difficult to rotate at scale.
