Automated Account Creation Bots

So there I was, attempting to figure out how many new accounts had been created on Gab in the first ten days of the new year. The answer to that question is 1,457 or an average of about 145 new accounts per day. 

In the process of gathering information to reach my conclusion, I noticed something.
So, I went into gabs search feature to confirm my suspicions by searching these 'betus'/'betuk'.

Here's what I found:

Conclusion: Automated account creation is possible and currently being accomplished, as these accounts were created sequentially along the UID's on the time line and in some cases within just a few seconds of each other. I wouldn't trust any of these accts. and if you go to perplexity.com and prompt it to 'research the site for being associated with malware and/or scams', you'll understand why I wouldn't trust any of them.
