I'm more and more thinking a government issued digital identity (like https://privacybydesign.foundation/irma-en/) that can be used to proof you're human (and other details of you want) but that can't be tracked back to an individual, but again optionally, can be used to create (multiple) online persona's is the way forward. I used to think of these things as dystopian, but fake content by fake persons is a bigger issue. Of course real persons could create persona's for such a bot, but a (personal and/or community based) blacklist mechanism based on the root account (the real human that created the persona) would go a long way.
