How do bots compromise the integrity of online polls and surveys, and what safeguards ensure valid results?
Bots compromise the integrity of online polls and surveys by artificially inflating or manipulating the number of responses, thus skewing the results. They can be programmed to vote multiple times or in specific patterns to influence the outcome. To ensure valid results and safeguard against bot interference, measures such as CAPTCHA verification, IP address tracking, user authentication, and data validation techniques can be implemented. Additionally, regular monitoring and analysis of response patterns can help detect and mitigate bot activities.
