Yes, that is the point. The options we have are changing these fundamentals, or continuing down the path of ever more aggressive stochastic methods for filtering out most of the bots.

At some point balance will tip where an internet with only authenticated traffic will be seen as more usable and preferred by the masses, then anonymity is over. New AI systems generating unfathomable amounts of human-like garbage to flood all UGC platforms might actually become the tipping point fairly soon.
