I read some time ago about this "heavenbanning" proposal. In short, instead of cutting bothersome users off from your platform, you relegate them to an alternate reality where their comments are invisible to real people, but get positive engagement from LLM-generated personas visible only to the user. You know, have your cake and let the troll eat it too.
So anyway, I think this was meant to sound scary, but having interacted with real people -- where do I sign up?
