Why not.bot: Index — The public evidence behind what the not.bot family exists to solve: deepfakes, proof of personhood, age verification, digital ID, and unaccountable AI agents.
Why not.bot: Deepfakes and Inauthentic Content — Fabricating anyone's face and voice now costs almost nothing, detection loses the arms race, and every authentic recording competes with the possibility it's fake.
Why not.bot: Proof of Personhood — No system deployed at internet scale can tell whether an account belongs to a human without demanding to know which human — as bots become the majority of traffic.
Why not.bot: Age Verification Without Surveillance — Age checks are now law across the major internet markets, and the systems used to comply collect identity data that gets retained, breached, and repurposed.
Why not.bot: Non-Government Digital ID — Digital identity today means a record in someone else's database — a government portal or a platform login — and the costs arrive as breaches, surveillance, and exclusion.
Why not.bot: Unaccountable AI Agents — AI agents now act across the internet with no verifiable identity and no human accountable for what they do.
