Yep. I used to be the guy responsible for bot detection at Robinhood so I can tell you firsthand it's impossible to reliably differentiate between humans and machines over a network. So either you accept being automated, or you overcorrect and block legitimate users.

I don't think the dead internet theory is true today, but I think it will be true soon. IMO that's actually a good thing, more agents representing us online = more time spent in the real world.
