A BANNED TWITTER USER is the same as a bot!
Unless they get re-instated…they can keep those banned users on the books forever(inflating the numbers)!!!
Twitter gets to continue to use your following/followers to pad their numbers, basically turning banned/suspended numbers into bots…10,000 (suspended/banned )GOP users = 10,000 bots for the GOP. then they can claim "No, we have a lot of GOP users still on Twitter".
I'm wondering if ELON MUSK knows that when Twitter bans/suspends(not sure about deletes).
The account will still show up as an active and part of "Twitter followers"….I'm banned, but my wife shows my account still up and still part of her number of followers/following.
Someone needs to post this info to Elon, if he doesn't already know it, because the lawyers/deposition seems to be ALL ABOUT BOTS and not banned or suspended user.
If ELON was to implant an ACTIVE/IN-ACTIVE algorithm to alert/warn that anything over 5 days last used will be put into an IN-ACTIVE catagory….that way it will be easy to see who are active users and then go after duplicate users and duplicate posts, the same bots that use the same text to post 1000's of times making it look like it's trending.
