I have been a moderator of some channels and I have always noticed a number of bot accounts during many specific ones, and during a questioning I understood that the cell phones of some selected channels had an average of 100 viewers and in some cases there are 2 people chatting in the chat all the time.

Even checking FrontPage or those who are on Lurk and many accounts do not follow the channel, have never sent messages but are always there in the chat.

Use the 'Twich Enhancer' extension to check how many accounts are connected and there are a huge number of streamers going through this situation above, I wonder if they are increasing their ad revenue?

If so, I have a suggestion:

It would be possible to only verify accounts with phone numbers and 2FA to count the AD for the content creator. And every 3 messes all the accounts without interaction with chat, and that live on Lurk and logged into any application need to be verified again.

Ads will be available to everyone, but bots used by systems and groups will become useless, and they will have to invest in a very high number of selected numbers to continue with this poor service.

If there are ways to break the botviewer system to increase AD revenue, we will see a huge reduction in bots on live streams that take advantage of this and take away the opportunity for smaller channels to be seen.
