ive volunteered for texting campaigns. when you text STOP you believe it’s triggering some program and doing it automatically, but its not. the volunteer sees your response then clicks “mute” or “remove”, it depends on the campaign and the response.
if you type “fuck off”, they will mute the conversation and you won’t get any more messages (until next campaign)
Yes. I’ve evaluated some of the bots for work, we didn’t use them, but that was more because it wasn’t quite what we wanted. (validating employees are at assigned- but frequently distributed- locations and responding to calls/messages.)
you’re acting like this is shocking. It’s not. This is pretty oldschool, actually. Like the ability to bot out actions based on keywords in replies predates smartphones.
Yeah but I want to tell the person three or four levels up to fuck off, not some idealistic person who thinks these sort of things aren’t just an annoyance.

Uhm.
There absolutely are bots that respond to key words.
But sometimes they just flag you as a live phone number.
and you have seen this or worked with them? I have, and on our system it was 100% manual, no bots.
Im not saying it doesnt exist, but have you seen this yourself or are you presuming it
