Zhao, who was the victim of a bot attack, added his thoughts to the conversation and stated that Twitter has to make eliminating bots a top priority.
The CEO of Binance posted a video of his impersonators swamping a discussion. Zhao added that he did not remark on the thread he showed if it was not evident to anyone.
Crypto trader Scott Melker posted a copy of the spammers’ comments in all uppercase to draw attention to the problem. An artist, meantime, created his own statement by dressing up the fake tweets in digital art.
Even though the community members made very obvious points, the bots continued to inundate Twitter threads started by people trying to demand a repair.
The removal of fraudulent bot armies from the social media network will be one of billionaire Elon Musk’s top goals if he successfully acquires Twitter, he stated in an April talk. Musk claims that bots are making the site “far worse,” bringing attention to the problem.
