> #1.a: Because of #1, there will be a flood of unverifiable bot activity on the internet, easily outnumbering real human interaction by 100x+. The only way to identify other humans is some sort of biometric verification process.
The intrinsic problem is that over the internet, you're basically getting an "id=<hash of biometric data>" field, and how do you know that biometric data actually came from a scanner rather than a hacker who stole the master biometric database? This is the intrinsic problem with any e-verification: there is no way to distinguish between a human initiated something on their computer and a program on the computer imitated a human initiated something on their computer, and if you have a problem that requires you to distinguish the two, well, you're out of luck.
