Securities Against Malbots
Securities Against Malbots
Are there any guaranteed securities and tools against malbots (probably now equipping with AI) registering at every Fediverse (or at least lemmy.world) to prevent bot accounts influencing communities' nature to contents?
One of my friends is in the red teaming world and this is, in his opinion, the top threat to the fediverse. Not everyone knows how to host properly so may expose themselves somehow and will not have proper DDOS mitigation in place. Unless you have a very robust and difficult sign up process it's going to be easy to overrun places with bots too. On the other hand, you CANNOT add friction to signing up or it'll cause people to turn away. Ten additional seconds can turn away half of attempted sign ins.
