We occasionally bring up the subject here of broadcasts that reduce others to code by pandering to our primate instincts for gratuitous cartoonification. Hoot hoot!
But of course, us primates didn't evolve with an internet that could mindlessly broadcast hoots willy nilly to play with the feelings of millions. Is this a potential concern?
Would a program of hoot-stamps help to let consumers know which, if any, hoops hoots have hopped through before they were broadcast? This might for instance help folks filter toots and tweets too according to their own niche, rather than being beset with broadcasts informed to their listener's species alone.
