Could you build this?
No Real-time human presence verification without identity collection requires sophisticated biometric/cryptographic anti-spoofing systems and deep bot-detection ML models.
What it would actually take: Building a privacy-preserving proof-of-humanity system requires specialized computer vision for passive liveness detection, client-side cryptographic attestation (WebAuthn/secure enclaves or zero-knowledge proofs), and deep reverse-engineering defenses against headless browsers and automation tools. This requires seasoned security engineers, cryptographers, and computer vision researchers.
