According to Twitter CEO Paraga Agravala, the company deletes more than half a million spam accounts every day before users realize its existence. The account deletion started after Ilona Maska refused to purchase the platform due to the large number of spam accounts.

The CEO has confirmed that spam is a real problem. The most advanced spam campaigns use a combination of live profiles and bots. According to the director, the fight against spam is dynamic and the anti-spam tool will not work in the long run, as spam campaigns will bypass protection.

“Every day, we delete more than half a million spam accounts, often before we see them on Twitter. We also block millions of accounts every week that we suspect may be fake if they don’t pass captchas, phone verifications and more.” , – Twitter Paraga Agraval CEO said.

Earlier, it was reported that a group of activists is urging Twitter advertisers to boycott the service at Mask’s request if content filtering is reduced and the service is flooded with offensive and misinformative messages.

It will be remembered that Elon Musk previously announced that he bought Twitter for $44 billion to make the platform “the world’s freest social network where there will be no censorship and everyone will have the right to say what they think”.
