More than half of online traffic today is not human.
It is bots, and a third of them are malicious.
AI is generating fake profiles, fake comments, even fake people.
And if Big Tech owns your identity, one hack could erase you from the internet entirely.
@terencekwok, founder of Humanity Protocol, is building a system to change that, giving people control of their digital identities through blockchain verification.
We talk about:
• What happens when bots outnumber humans online
• How Apple, Google, and Facebook control who we are
• Why digital ID could be the most important tech of the decade
• How the Mastercard partnership could redefine online identity
• And why the next big war might be between real humans and fake ones
Terence Kwok says the future of the internet depends on one thing.
Knowing who is real and who is not.
