What is this “inauthentic behavior” ban that I keep seeing people complaining about? What counts as “inauthentic”? Has Grok been reading Jean-Paul Sartre?
I assume it’s actually to spot botting or paid posting or something like that?
Clearly the inauthentic behavior detection is not good. I follow a few finance people and most of their popular tweets have someone in the replies with an identical name and profile picture but different handle, who tweets something like “Here’s my SECRET TRICK for 50% annual returns with zero risk!” It is a mystery why Twitter’s algorithm can’t detect these extremely obvious bots.
Yeah, and it seems like every post with >50k likes has someone in the comments mentioning that it’s a word-for-word copy of another post by a smaller account.
The help page for this says it’s for engagement farming, reposting stolen content, spam, etc. I have no idea why it triggered for me but I’ve heard a lot of people with completely normal activity got hit with it this week. It’s possible some of the likes were from bots trying to make their behavior less obvious, but it’s also possible the algorithm is just buggy and broken.
It seems likely that my appeal will eventually be approved but it’s annoying timing.
I was suspended earlier this year for “inauthentic behavior” on an account I haven’t used for years, successfully appealed it, was suspended again, and haven’t bothered appealing. Seems like the detector has been badly broken for a while.
