RE: Call to bot owners to block top 50 rewarded authors!

in #steem7 years ago

Twitter allows bots, same with instagram. Facebook, while does explicitly allow them provides an API that you can make a bot with as well. Name a single social media that actively deter bots? If there is an API given then people will make internal bots, without an API then they will just use a library that allows for the interaction with HTML elements... The point is that it is effectively impossible to stop bots without adding in consistent and unique items like google captcha or other randomized bot deterrents and even those aren't perfect deterrents.
