given the experience-space around cypherpunks and article walls, maybe
a fun idea would be an AI bot that breaks the article walls
automatically
it might:
- subscribe to cypherpunks, even if the list is dead
- wait for messages containing links
- identify if the messages link to non-inlined articles
- visit the non-inlined articles and identify if they are walled via
anything other than plaintext/plain-html access
- engage the site to navigate the wall
- access the article text
- send a reply email containing it
alternatively:
- find the article text elsewhere
- send a reply email containing it (with a link at start)
the bot-idea would be capable of registering for for-pay services
using a fake identity provided by the user (likely there's)
the user would also provide a source of funds for this registration.
it is assumed this is done via cryptocurrency investments from other
projects.
project simplifies to basic web navigation with ai
could maybe focus on one or two examples
