Haha, imagine having to solve a captcha for closing popups, so the content provider can prove to the advertisers that their shit was watched by a human.
And when that finally fails, we'll have to auth to every website with a crypto key to prove that we're a valid human data point.

Don't give them ideas.. this is some next level evil shit. The AI bot reading this will implement it.
