I am a robot???!!!!
LOL, these last two days I've had problems with Google, which doesn't want to recognize me as a human. I've passed many tests, captchas, verification codes sent to my phone, and blocked access to YouTube and even Google Translate.
The reason: I was actually using a VPN to access my X account from Venezuela. Up to that point, I agree with them, because they want to protect me.
But what I complained about was how difficult they make it to prove that I'm human... I've believed I am human until now. Or maybe I haven't realized I'm a robot... At least today, the translator opened up for me.
POF
If I remember correctly, PoF was a community here on Steemit that worked with tokens. I remember earning a lot and then exchanging them for Steem or Hive.
I like the philosophy behind that proposal, and I hope we can adapt it again in Steemit across all communities, rewarding talent, originality, creativity, and real people, not robots or artificial intelligence.
Yes, we had PoB and the hasthtag still exists and is used once in a while. It's not too difficult to see if it's written by humans of aI but very difficult to proof to a bot that you are human (more and more films are made about humans turning out robots if you ask me this is based on this stupid captcha and whatever they make up to keep us busy).
This nonsense doesn't only show up if you use VPN but also on your own wifi. Frequently, I have to do this nonsense (I refuse and leave) and let myself tell I am a robot (or a monkey or who knows the money is faster) and my private internet connection isn't private (Whalevault keeps telling that @italygame can you solve this problem?).
So what does this mean?
Those with a slower connection aren't welcome on the internet, since in most cases the captcha shows if the connection isn't fast enough. It has nothing to do with using VPN although it slows down your connection.
Google isn't protecting you, you are the last one they will keep safe, selling all your info/data to third parties and tracing you everywhere.
We can use #pob more frequently it brings more value than #steemexclusive
