Bots now account for nearly half of all internet traffic globally, with so-called “bad bots” responsible for a third.

The proportion of internet traffic generated by bots hit its highest level last year, up 2% on the year before, according to the 2024 Imperva Bad Bot Report. Traffic from human users fell to just 50.4%.

"Automated bots will soon surpass the proportion of internet traffic coming from humans, changing the way that organizations approach building and protecting their websites and applications," said Nanhi Singh, general manager for application security at Imperva.

There was a strategy someone mentioned iny follows that I haven't yet tried:

If you see a post that definitely seems like a bot, check to see if any of your friends/follows are following them. If they are, unfollow your friend and block the bot.

Rinse, repeat.

On Twitter especially, I get a ton of likes from bots and I immediately block them as I see them

I don’t trust anyone with a recent join date who immediately starts posting in the Politics Board. At least spend a few weeks talking about sex on the main board to establish your credentials.

How else will WrongGuide get to spew all he wants without being called wrong?

He NEEDS his alts.

But yeah, totally sketchy!

Brainwashed MAGAts are indistinguishable from bots programmed with right-wing algorithms.

To repeat the opening post, go outside.and talk with real people.

Yeah, it’s a porn board, dude! It’s weird when new posters waltz right past all the sexy talk and start arguing politics immediately. I posted on the main board for years before I wandered over here.

This is the most fun forum on LIT. Right'tards are a hoot.

Agree! When I first got onto Lit, I thought it was all supposed to be about sex and porn. I was surprised to see political and other commentary threads. I ‘ll just stay over on the sex side because it’s a lot more fun.

you mean the left wing. How many times has your kind tried to murder the POTUS?

Out of every response that I've seen on here, only one said, "Yes, we should get outside and talk to real people." The consensus from most on here is that arguing with bots is okay if you talked about fucking first.

Goddamn, this place is pathetic.
