I wonder how it'll work on sites like Reddit. Imagine paying for verification only to get downvoted and "silence brand"ed by people

The next step will be preventing downvotes on branded accounts

They made ad accounts unable to be blocked a year or so ago so downvote preventing doesn’t seem too wild. It’s why you couldn’t block that Christian account that always posted “He gets you” stuff.
