All evidence is at Twitter. There is no way to verify any hypothesis without access to what Twitter has, including the hypothesis that the most users on Twitter are not bots. But everybody is free to have any opinion based on the interaction they have with Twitter. In my case, for a reason which is completely under the control of Twitter, my username which can be linked with my real identity is presented as suspended, when in fact I deleted my account. I don't longer have any relation with Twitter but they present an account which contains my name as suspended. Legally true, morally repugnant.
