    Nah thats also not the Solution anonymity is key. And bots don’t care anyway, and banning people for down voting is not exactly a good behavior either.

      With anonymity comes brigading. Different instances might handle this differently

          For real civil identities, definitely.

          For alts I can create in a whim, not so much.

          And before you tell that spammers would create alts too, you can imagine some age or karma (because it exist, even if hidden) before being able to downvote.

            No, thats actually regarding any official voting.

            Plebiscite, elections of ANY kind (including stuff like Works council or “Sozial wahl”), * Referendum and even such silly things as Class representatives and Student Representatives. They are all falling under this law.
