Jack Dorsey asks Elon how to fix Twitter. Musk's suggestion: identify the bots
- Juliate 7y ago"Nobody knew" /s Identify them in big bold red colors. Make their history publicly auditable (when they joined, how their followers/following pattern looks like, what their posting pattern looks like, what topics/hashtags do they use most frequently, what their network of connection looks like). Restrict the hell out of them as to what/how many actions they can do every month (un/follow, post, rt, like, report) so that they become slow by design.
- elfexec 7y agoAgreed. Instead of removing the accounts, they should just freeze the accounts and keep them public so that we can all see what they've been up to. Maybe a red check mark to show they are verified bots?
- mikro2nd 7y agoCue a bunch of HN articles whingeing about victims of false positive flagging with no practical recourse...
- deegles 7y agoIdentify humans with a $1 credit card charge and a quick automated video call + face recognition. If your account is verified, your tweets are indexed and searchable. Maybe add other limits for unverified accounts.
- foolzcrow 7y agoSounds like a dog whistle for censoring dissenters. All these people that disagree with us were bots ..... Ban hammer.
