Parity Technologies(@paritytech):Bots now generate more than half of all web traffic, and while AI agents become indistinguishable from people, most verification systems still ask the wrong question. To prove you are a person, you are asked to prove which person you are. Human Web3 separates those two things. At Parity, we are exploring how @Polkadot can support Proof of Personhood without turning identity into another centralized gatekeeper. In this article, @maaaaadhoney explains why Proof of Personhood matters, the trade-offs, and the privacy-preserving infrastructure beginning to take shape.
