Thats seems bad. I know some bots are hepful. But 1 million bots seems like they for something nefariously.
Yeah, I hope that people farming them are just trolling the fediverse and don't plan on using them.
Lol trolling is bad. A bot army could make things miserable here.
Trolling in the sense making people freak out while not doing anything with those bots. That's what I'm hoping for although it's improbable.
I was thinking more racist transphobic trolling aided by an amry of lurking upvoting bots........but ya know.
Like trying to keep people on reddit?
I'd go to Facebook first
Or just too generally troll the fediverse.
