I agree it's bad but I disagree it needs to be stopped.
Sometimes the cute is worse than the disease. The Internet is - thankfully - a wide open protocol. And now we have shit like captchas and kyc and 2fa and all sorts of junk, but that's an indicator of how free and permissionless the Internet is.
So then people develop Nostr-auth and better proof of human and trust graphs and whatnot and we get to keep the openness where it belongs (at the bottom) while being forced to build good opt-in protections further up the stack.
