There's going to be so much shilling and spamming in the near future. The Dead Internet is coming. Five years from now there won't be any point to online commenting sites like HN and reddit because you know most of the other posters are bots trying to push an agenda.
- vineyardmike 4y agoAnytime I use a traditional search engine I think the dead internet is already here because surely no one is writing all these crappy SEO spam sites. That said, we’ve had sufficient power to shill already and we haven’t seen it flood traditional sites yet. Even if the comment quality is better, not detection can rely on interaction patterns like posting volume, or the use of a headless browser.
