MMOs like World of Warcraft have been battling bots for years despite having a sub fee. The bot companies pay for subs with stolen credit cards. They’ll do the same thing here.

Oh well then thats not good. Is it as bad as in Twitter though? If its much more manageable and better than currently, that might still be worth it. A big wrinkle in this alleged business plan scenario, nevertheless.

It depends.
If other countries want to sow misinformation on Twitter badly enough, they’d finance it.

Interesting. Why would you want a bot on WoW that uses a stolen credit card? Wouldn’t you lose the account once the card is frozen?
I don’t know jack about WoW so that may be a dumb question.

They have bot programs that farm in game gold to sell for real money. These are throwaway accounts so they don’t care when they get shut down.
