This is not going to stop bots.
Isn't that the started intent? Like adding a small roadblock or captcha.
I'm not saying I agree but the simple logic should work. It'll likely reduce the user base and still let bits in with cash to burn.
In theory, maybe. In practice, the bots might just pay and post anyway. If they can recoup those costs in the scam, it costs them basically nothing.
So bots pay to continue what they're doing, but Musky now gets money for it?
Ray Charles could see what's going on here.
This is what Craigslist did and now nobody uses it and we're forced to use the garbage platform that is Facebook Marketplace.
