Twitter spam continues to increase, how many times does someone follow you and when you explore their account you realise it’s merely another spam account, which is going to flood your stream with nonsense affiliated links? I’m sure you can relate.
There’s a new feature, which is incredibly useful – next time you spot a sketchy followers, simply DM their alias to @spam, which is Twitters spam control unit that looks into accounts and removes them if they’re spam.
Nice effort!
Just like GMails “Report Spam” button, make use of it!
I think they should put a limit on how many followers and following a person can have. Who on earth follows 4000 people. eg 250 per username. If you want more you pay for it in blocks of 250. Social Media has become Spam Media.
Hmmmm, that’s not the worst idea I’ve heard actually, I mean, I follow 250 odd only and have 800 or so followers. There needs to be a ratio of followers to following or something..
