A Recent Tweet By Elon Musk Indicates the Removal of All Spam Bot Accounts: Here’s What We Know

Elon Musk has tweeted on Twitter regarding the removal of all spam bot accounts affecting the Twitter platform. The recent tweet by Musk indicates that the action will be taken tomorrow.

Here’s what we know.

Removal of Twitter Spam Bots

Twitter bots are automated Twitter accounts that perform similar functions just like a normal Twitter account but are present to mislead other users.

These bots can be used to spread malware, fake news, spin elections or even create panic. They are present in large numbers which had even made Musk rethink his decision to purchase Twitter.

Musk had recently made arrangements to delete all the inactive and unused Twitter accounts from its platform to free upto 1.5 billion namespaces of its users.

He had also previously said that all the scam bots from its platform will also be removed as they make a lot of spam problems for its users.

As per the recent tweet by Musk, tomorrow might be the day for Twitter to start removing the automated bot accounts from the Twitter platform.

We will have to wait till tomorrow to see the number of accounts that will be removed and to know more about Twitter’s new database.

Musk after taking charge of Twitter has made some significant changes to the microblogging platform to make it free from hate speeches and to set an assured safety standard for its users.

This decision to remove all the automated spam bot accounts is also part of this and is well-received by most of its users.

The bots are in for a surprise tomorrow
