>It sounds like we now both agree they have accelerated fraud and misuse.

This was never in question and I don't see where you picked it up in this comment chain.

> I was pointing out that a large shift has happened that has enabled deception where it was not possible before

And I was pointing out these exact shifts have happened throughout your life without you noticing or caring and they will keep happening in the future. The only difference here is you noticed it this time, because the keyword in question prints free advertising money. But arguing why or how this one thing might be bad while there are tons of actually bad things out there misses reality by a wide margin. It's like arguing against renewables because coal workers will be disadvantaged. Sure, that's 100% true. No need to argue. But is it really what society should care about in light of everything else we know today?
