HEY i just thought of something............. twitter must price their ads based on how many people they reach. i can't believe advertisers can be too happy finding out how many bots and trolls are out there that they are "paying" to have ads directed at.... i wonder if twitter has taken and flack for that........ because if enough advertisers pull their ads twitter would HAVE to clean their act up and PROVE to advertisers that they are actually getting through to real people.
