> The question was: Where is anything on PhysicsForum presented as human activity?

Right, that's the question I struggle to interpret as good faith, but I'll try to answer! For me, the whole concept of online forums is interacting with semi-anonymous humans (and I believe that's why many (most?) ban bots), but also the slogan is "science by humans" and that seems to be their general brand direction:

https://www.physicsforums.com/

But I worry the focus is on the word "human" too much. My complaint is attribution, which applies to any account on the site, human or otherwise.

Since you continue to sidestep the implications of my rhetorical question, I'd ask it non-rhetorically:

Why would anybody make an account on an "expert discussion" site to be misrepresented? Why would anybody, be it you or me or whoever you like, want that?
