That’d catch some, yeah, but based on what I’ve read on join-lemmy.org and some of the Github issues, I just don’t see the Lemmy devs doing anything remotely close to that.

Not to mention, it’s incredibly easy to spin up sock puppet accounts on several instances (like you described your boss doing…omg that’s sad lol).

The concern trolls also usually stay within the community rules, so it’s often difficult to do anything about them even if you successfully identify one.
