I wish this legislation would also apply to AI generated emails, sales outreach, and LinkedIn messages.

Also, political SMS messages and the messages you get from some other random number acknowledging the "STOP" message you just sent.

(Especially if it were in a machine readable form.)

I already assume 99.9% of these are all generated by bots.

The requirement doesn't kick in until 10 million monthly US users. I don't see why this shouldn't apply to smaller businesses.

Should PUBG mobile players be told they are winning against bots?

Should psychics tell you they cannot really speak for the dead?
