Bots were easy to detect, now they're almost indistinguishable from human interaction. The death of the internet would be an incredible loss for humanity. You will not be able to trust anything you find online. Nothing is safe from this.

I am using the broad definition of bots to include large numbers of accounts controlled by small groups of people to influence online discourse.
Between those bots (for nefarious, mundane, or marketing reasons) and previous attempts at automated bots, “broad” internet discourse was already ruined. Now people recognize it. This will have the effect of pushing communities back to smaller sizes, I think this is a good thing.
People shouldn’t have trusted all the things they read online from untrusted sources in the first place.
