If I'm a bot owner and I could pay $500/year to ensure my 500 bots run unfettered, it might be worth it. I can influence a significant amount of discourse with 500 accounts xitting, rexitting the original xit that was xit out, etc.
If he thinks he can make money from bot managers, it may make sense.
It will probably decrease trust in the whole xitty system, but maybe Musk doesn't care?
And you'll use 500 accounts for that?
I think that when they are banned, you'll have to come up with 500 new ways to pay
I think you underestimate how many validated credit cards come up for sale every week on the internet.
Trust me, paying $1 isn't even a speed bump to scammers: they pay it with Other People's Money.
That's the tough part about white-hat, you follow the rules, they don't.
