You can hide bot accounts in the settings.
That assumes they were registered as bots, doesn't it?
Exactly. If theyβre bots but not registered as such, just report them.
I think the point of these bots is that they try to make themselves appear not like bots in order to steer the direction of discussions. That and upvoting the agendas they want to push and downvoting perspectives they disagree with.
These spam bots wouldn't list themselves as bots so that wouldn't work
You think people would lie like that??
