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.

Isn’t this what OpenAI is doing with World Coin?

It appears that there’s already a black market for the verification tokens
