Most of them were automatically defederated for not having adequate protection against bot signups, that got nothing to do with sketchy content.

As someone interested in both sides of security game theory, what exactly helps stop bots? I grew up playing RuneScape and hating bots before making r/Artisanvideos and hating them even more. I've always wondered if it's a matter of automatically detecting precise repetitive patterns or just specific giveaway signs.

If the bots are welcomed and they don’t have good enough moderation, this is just sketchy content with extra steps.
