Have you ever considered that those so-convincing bots aren't actually bots at all and might be so convincing because they're actual people? Always makes me chuckle how quick people are to call others machines or paid-actors because an unsavoury opinion is held.
- cryptoz 9y agoNo, I haven't, because there are teams, scientists, researchers, etc, that are slowly finding, identifying and proving botnets of accounts on Twitter. I also use the term bot lightly, to include 'human being following orders' from a government or other organization. > Always makes me chuckle how quick people are to call others machines or paid-actors because an unsavoury opinion is held. WHAT? How dare you accuse me of this? "because an unsavoury opinion" what is this? That has nothing to do with this. I am accusing accounts of being bots because they are created automatically, they don't tweet normally like humans do, they follow clearly discernible patterns, etc. These bots are focused on sewing hatred and racism in the US. I would never do what you are insinuating and it's insane that you think I would. Russians are using technology and paid actors to influence public opinion in the US. This is not based on some "unsavoury opinion" I didn't like in a tweet. This is the reality.
