Twitter : Approximately 8.5% of all active users are bots
- hawkice 12y agoLet's be clear: "However, only up to approximately 8.5% of all active users used third party applications that may have automatically contacted our servers for regular updates without any discernable additional user-initiated action." This speaks to how many people use any third party applications with this behavior, and not whether they are bots. I also suspect that the number of bots is much higher, and that they have no idea what it is (if they know a specific account is used for spam purposes, automatic followership boosting, etc. it would be deleted).
