I'm not saying that SEO spam will be clubhouse's problem. But there are more kinds of marketing than SEO. The "investment seminar" scam, for example, has been running for decades in the real world.

I also think it's a mistake to think that common sense will save us. Everybody has weaknesses, and any given scam is carefully optimized for its target audience.

But that's already happening on it! It therefore wouldn't be dropping in quality from where it already is!

Your theory is that there's no way for the proportion of low-quality content to increase?

Correct, because it's all pretty much low-quality content by most standards.
