Taking Responsibility

I get enquiries for help and assistance on various Twitter-related bugs and issues on a daily basis, and where I can I’m happy to provide guidance.

Lately the most common request has been from users looking to stop something from populating their Twitter timeline with automated tweets. After the Mikeyy exploit, I wrote about steps you can take to ensure your Twitter account remains secure, but these kinds of attacks on Twitter are rare. The reality is that most of the auto-tweeting bots on Twitter are not operating in a malicious way.
