No, we don't. AI slop is a worldwide phenomenon.

Looking at just the users who submitted the reports on curl's AI slop list:

* 4 users accounts are now closed/banned, so I don't know their activity

* 12 users have only submitted invalid/spam reports to curl, and nobody else. They probably just open a new account each time, and they can come from anywhere, and claim to be anyone.

* 5 users have at least one accepted report (to curl or anywhere else). These should be people who care about their reputation, and yet they've been caught submitting AI slop at least once.

Of those 5, one is from Florida, USA, one is from Noida, India, and the other 3 don't disclose their location.



> at least one accepted report anywhere else

From a previous post, some of the accepted reports elsewhere had suspicious titles, like if some projects are accepting everything.
