    If your only goal is to reduce bots, then yes it should be successful. However, this limits the amount of time people can spend on the app. Which is the antithesis of what a successful social media platform wants to do and what ad agencies what to do.

      I don’t see how this limits bots at all. You can simply spin up a hundred thousand bots and you’ll be able to crawl 30 million posts a day. At best it will slow bots down for a week while they refactor how their systems work.
