> The hard challenge is that many accounts which look fake superficially – are actually real people. And some of the spam accounts which are actually the most dangerous – and cause the most harm to our users – can look totally legitimate on the surface. Regular users don’t care if a low-effort post is from a bot or a human. They want their feed populated with interesting content. Also, freedom of speech is good, but for most what actually happens is they post whatever “hot take” they have and nobody or like 2 people notice. What’s really important is the ranking algorithm your site uses, and whether it upweights spam posts, “pop culture” human posts, or whatever posts are most relevant / interesting to each user / community. I feel like Elon complaining about spam is really him just making up an excuse for suddenly backtracking his offer.
