THE POINT OF TWITTER IS THAT IT IS OPT-IN
Can anyone tell me a reason why I should give even half a shit whether spambots follow me on Twitter? It's not like I follow them back. Whatever they're saying doesn't appear on my timeline. I don't have to read it. At all. Because I don't follow them back. I don't understand why bots would bug someone at all unless s/he followed them back and had to read their bullshit all the time. It's opt-in communication! Do I care whether a spambot reads my tweets? No! Hell, probably half my follower count is bots. Go ahead, bots! Read away! BASK IN MY GLORY ETERNAL
The only user I've ever blocked was an actual human that looked to me like a conspiracy-theory nutcase. Crazy people bug me. Bots don't. I'm pretty sure this means I am one with modernity.
