was any evidence ever given? >"The trained eye, weary of vibe coded designs, will see Claude Code’s aesthetic fingerprint all over this. " yeah, everyone is re-doing old interfaces with LLMs. >"They're hosted on AlexHost" yeah, they're selling grey market pharma. Now, I have no problems saying that the whole thing is a bot driven scam -- it probably is , grey market web is filled with scams -- but there was no evidence given; just an ad for a magic tool that detects AI... somehow. ...which makes me feel like an asshole for putting in the time looking for the anchor and hoping it wasn't an advertisement.

> was any evidence ever given? Try browsing through the offtopic forum [1] if you're not convinced. About half of the threads lead with a post which uses the phrase "food noise" (often "the food noise came back"), even in topics like "Pet photos thread" or "TV shows to binge while on the treadmill" [2] where that content is completely inappropriate. Or, along the same lines: try reading the "welcome thread" [3]. No one actually introduces themselves; all of the replies immediately start treating the thread as if it's a discussion of some vague topic. "Admin" even comes back several times to "close the loop on my own question" and to return "with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one" [4]. In short: all the simulated user behavior on the forum is wildly unnatural. It doesn't stand up to any close examination.
