>First of all, having to buy each account for $50 instead of spinning up thousands for free would shut Would cost them chump change. You've added an operating expense. When bot farms have giant walls of smartphones bolted into specially-designed rigs, that means they're already used to operating costs that are non-trivial. >Second, the move toward identity verification will eventually make even selling accounts like this impossible. How do you figure that? Even if some scheme is invented where a person can verify that it's them, that will be part of the sale. They will make it possible for the third party to do the verification too. If you've got some genius scheme though where that is impossible, I'd love to hear it. Something that only the person themselves can do, and others can't impersonate them even with permission.
