nice conspiracy thinking. I for one can't wait for ID confirmed social media, where I don't have to read anything produced by russian bots

You honestly believe these ID laws will get rid of bots? Maybe for a year or two the volume will be lower as they catch up on how to circumvent restrictions, but I don't see it making any real serious dent in bot traffic.

i'm not a russian bot and i hope the id cards and face recognition stuff is temporary while the world collaborates to catch the problem people. But my guess is once they see how successful it is they will get addicted to the power and not let go.

Implying bots will have any restrictions or issues at all.

Identity fraudsters beg to differ.
