    The ban also forbids marketers from exaggerating their own influence by, for example, paying for bots to inflate their follower count.

    I wonder if “followers” includes users and how that will impact Twitter, Reddit, Facebooky, Instagram, TikTok, etc who use stats like active users to drive ad sales.

      But I thought Elon got rid of all the bots… does that mean my sweetheart’s link isn’t actually in their bio?

      I am devastated.

      I’m curious about that too, I assumed the main target was online storefronts but it seems more expansive than that. Was surprised to learn about Amazon suing admins of FB groups.
