I find it fascinating that the woman porn malware bots which comment on every single NFL video use a speech to text recognition software to stay relevant to the video but don’t do autocorrect type changes to make the information accurate. Theres 0 attempt to fully blend in here. #BotWatch

These are clearly bots using AI to argue with other commenters and people still eagerly bite the bait. Its like the people who set up these accounts to mass push Trump propaganda aren’t even trying anymore to make the accounts unique. #BotWatch

Anyway, social media algorithms are generating bots to create dissension between left moderate Democrats and politicians further to the left (New Democratic Socialists, New Progressives, etc). #botwatch #SocialMedia #disinfo.

Don’t let a “follow back” fool you. Look for:
• Generic or no bio
• Repetitive, low-effort posts
• Sudden activity spikes
• Zero human interaction
Stay alert. Clean your follows. Trust your gut.

Some have asked—do bots follow you back? The answer: sometimes. Here’s the breakdown:
• Engagement bots follow back to appear legit
• Lurker bots don’t—they just observe and amplify
• Trap bots follow back, wait, then bait with disinfo

What to do:
• Don’t engage. Mute or block.
• Report when appropriate.
• Curate your feed with real voices.
• Stay sharp, stay civil.
This platform is worth protecting. Let’s hold the line together.

"Botwatch" is an interesting idea. I've been discussing something like this for a while now. Essentially a trust network for telling humans from bots.
I could see a classifier NN being useful here once there is enough data.

Meet "Catherin S. Bennett" (@/catherinbennett.bsky.social), an account with a GAN-generated face claiming to be a liberal retired physics professor. This account recently reposted an ad for weight loss supplements from another account with a GAN-generated face, @/moremedicine1.bsky.social.

Another day, another Gambian scammer to report and block.
Don't believe the sob stories and do NOT engage. They go to popular social media constantly begging for money every time.

9️⃣ Bots hate evidence – Ask for proof, and watch them glitch.
