Reddit CEO says facial verification may be introduced. Ostensibly to prevent bots.

But we all know how dangerous this can be. But most likely Reddit users will just accept it.

Although they have a great free analogue right under their noses - Lemmy. Which is many times better than its competitor.

I wish more people would discover Lemmy, but that's unlikely.

Requiring face ID AFTER genAI has become great at generating faces is certainly a decision

    Next step will be to require Video with bop-it style live instructions, stick out your tongue, blink one eye, pick your nose, make finger guns, smile, frown. They won't care that it's not disability friendly.

    Facebook tried to make me take a video of myself moving my head around making different facial expressions to prove I was a person. I was like... not even my bank requires that. This was after making a comment that was Trump-negging. So I cancelled it.
