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.
