On the "Fake accounts" issue.
I have, at LEAST a dozen Twitter accounts. Probably more. Sometimes I think up a clever name, its available, I snatch it up. Its a weird sort of compulsion, sometimes I consider turning them into "funny themed meme" accounts but never do.
I also have a bunch that are explicitly labeled as "bot". They even have "bot" as part of the handle and listed on the profile. Mostly because every once in a while Inget the urge to play with some code and see if I can automate some things with scripts. Like I had a Heroku Ebooks style bot spoiting random things for a while. Another was privately posting my home IP to me if it changed so I knew where to look for remote access to my home network. I made a script that would automatically pull and post images from a directory once an hour (for the previously mentioned meme bots).
Some of these accounts are just automated posting of blog posts.
Inactively post(ed) on 2-3 before deleting the Twitter App over elon.
The question is, how many of these are "fake"?
None of these accounts do anything malicious. They are all run by ne, a real person, several of them actively/manually. Several of them are more or less dormant.
How do you even measure that?
