The vitalik spoofing spam bots are such low hanging fruit. They should really just auto shadow ban anyone using his profile picture besides the real vitalik. (And probably elon musk too..)
I wonder if its an issue of being tangled up in internal bureaucracy, or not wanting to implement one-off solutions to glaring issues that can't be generalized. Certainly a management failure somewhere.
I suspect it's because there are many completely different Twitter "communities". The obvious stuff you see all the time is completely different from the low hanging fruit I'd list off.
I do wish they'd ban blue emojis at the start and end of display names. I see that all the time logged in or logged out.
I've seen impersonation bots that add random noise to the profile picture of the user they're impersonating, so it's possible that Twitter is already doing something like that (just with a similarity threshold too low).
