I never found it useful though as I have other means for authenticating accounts.
I would unfollow people who are dumb enough to retweet a fake lebron so it’s very unlikely fake lebron would end up in my feed.
- kevinmchugh 4y agoThe people I follow were not fooled, they were laughing at parody accounts. The risk is that 1) I'm not verifying every account that gets retweeted onto my feed and 2) I have an imperfect overlap of knowledge with the people I follow. So a subtle parody could go right over my head.
- prepend 4y agoI agree and don’t verify every account in my feed, just the ones I follow. But I don’t need to verify every account. I’m not making life or death decisions so if someone retweets real lebron or fake lebron I don’t care. It’s definitely likely that subtle parodies go over my head frequently.
