Why are there so many pornographic reply bots on Twitter?

1.16K viewsOtherTechnology

Anyone who’s spent time on Twitter in the past few months especially has probably run into or at least heard of the “P U S S Y I N B I O”-type replies that posts regularly seem to attract.

Why are they so prevalent? Are they actually so successful that it’s worthwhile to do this? I do not understand who benefits from these, because there cannot be so many people clicking on these links that they’re effective… Can there?

While I feel a lot of people in here have issues with Elon from a personal/political perspective, and putting aside that many are just replying anecdotally because they don’t like Elon; I agree the comment section on Twitter is becoming useless for discussion purposes and the bot situation has been getting worse from my experience.

Is it worse than pre-Elon? I don’t know.

Maybe it’s to pad engagement stats or compel people to get blue checks, which supposedly provides a better experience? Who knows. An objective, non-bias study would be interesting.
