Why the heck can twitter not get this sorted. Nmaes like horny_hottie, or britney blah blah are constant, with random letters/numbers only different in each account. Seems a simple enough thing to end it for twitter?? Something else I notice is, as soon as I see a bot or spammer, I block them. If I am not online they have often been blocked anyway. However, I know at least one of my followers NEVER blocks them, and worries her follow count goes down if twitter delete spam/bot accounts. Clearly, these spammers increase her follow numbers. How do they continue to stay on her list? Beats me why anyone would want such idiots on their follow list anyway, it doesn't look good to me. Guess it takes all sorts to make a world, same for a twitterverse.

It's a greed/blame culture, which is a pretty unpleasant combination. I agree, but it is the way of the world, alas. It’s a greed/blame culture, which is a pretty unpleasant combination.
