I thought: Okay I'll do 15 of these and start spamming twitter.

After I did those... it says I failed for some reason... Am I a bot? I'm starting to doubt if I'm human... πŸ€”

Knowing companies like Twitter they probably had some Minority Report style psychological profile on you from their intrusive data collection and predicted you were there to troll.

This is some high level " Person of Interest" shit. If you don't know, check out this TV show called persons of interest.

That is so boring to watch. I couldn't get past the first season. Something like the Snowden movie probably gets the point across without all the cop/criminal drama.

Lol I've never even used twitter before.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You have used the internet though.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've never used the internet.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Good thinking, it's a silly place.

[–] TheYear2525 10 points 1 year ago

Have you ever used a website with a β€œshare on twitter” button?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Facebook makes shadow profiles of people who aren't on the site. Twitter could very well be doing the same

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

1 of 15????

And they force the login to see the posts?

Is this a Speedrun on how to have the highest bounce rate on a web page?

Insane πŸ˜† Is Elon actually trying to tank Twitter completely? I don't understand it.

Saudis couldn't buy it directly

So what you're saying is that Twitter successfully kept out a bad actor.

It's a shame that most of the users they have left are also in that category, but hey, they seem to be working on it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

This makes no sense. It was testing for humans, not for non-trolling humans. The test failed.

Also, trolling isn't necessarily bad acting. Trolling is not abuse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it immoral to troll a platform that is owned by an evil corporation?

[–] Moghul 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You trolling the platform, or the users?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

Users exist to be trolled. That is their purpose.

[–] boeman 9 points 1 year ago

That username says "yes"

[–] cybervseas 7 points 1 year ago

This feels like some kind of fever dream.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

And at the end of it, they'll just ask you for your phone number anyway

[–] dreadedsemi 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you using a VPN? Sometimes VPN ips are blacklisted and you'd get difficult captchas
