Interesting enforcement mechanism although it seems a bit onerous and hard to implement on front end. Curious as to what you think of the later parts.

It would be slightly onerous for users but that’s kind of the goal. I’m not sure if you read the paper that post was a response to but I think there’s some understanding users need to have before using a social media and that’s one of the only ways I could think to enforce awareness training.
