So, I believe you. I think it’s a lot of bots.

But where are they? Where is the technology for it?

Again, I agree. But I would like to see the servers or computers they are housed on, and the software.

I have been writing code for about 40 years and I don't know why you think that boys require some kind of server farm because they don't.

You can run a bot on a freaking Android and you could process the accounts of a thousand accounts 10,000 accounts on an Android.

So there you go, I bought can be anywhere in the world where you have a simple Android phone and a programming language installed on it.

Again. I would like to see that. IRL.

I want to see it. Not talk about it.

A bot that automates communications with the website is nothing more than a programming language that makes socket calls and there's no reason that you couldn't manage thousands of accounts now you can only do one communication at a time but there's no reason that you couldn't do that using a single Android telephone.

I don't really feel a need to demonstrate that for you. If you don't believe me ask around.

An Android phone especially one with the high-speed connection oh my God that's a screaming little supercomputer.

I am not asking for you to demonstrate.

You know how you do to a museum, and you see stuff? Like you learn stuff?

I would like to see, and use, and see in use this type of stuff you are talking about.

I am not doubting you. I’m saying I am interested in the topic, and I would like to see it in action. I would like to learn how it works.
