Well no?
What did I miss?
I'm speaking broadly in general terms in the post, about sharing online.
This conversation was about bots. Yours is about "outlets" and "streams", whatever that is.
If you have some algorithm or few central points distributing information, any information, you'll get bot problems. If you instead yourself hook up with specific outlets, you won't have that problem, or if one is bot infested you can switch away from it. That's hard when everyone is in the same outlet or there are only few big outlets.
Sorry if it's not clear.
What is an outlet?
