In the age of AI-spam, I now treat typos in webpages as a good sign - Lemmy

I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn’t checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I’m reassured that it’s a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.

You shouldn’t. Repost bots on Reddit had already figured out how to use misspellings/typos to get past spam filters.
email spam and scammers have been using this tactic forever. if a person is stupid enough to click or respond to the message from 'Wels Farpo', they're more apt to go all-in on the scam.
