The obsession for Twitter, a social media platform which transfers information in no time to any corner of the world, is growing by leaps and bounds. Particularly among youngsters who tend to click a link that is tagged with a female photo or a sexy line, it’s growing like a weed.
But now, the company has got dreadful news for them. In a bid to regulate online-sex on twitter, the leading social media has decided to list out and deactivate all such accounts.
As part of the plan, Twitter has already deleted close to 90,000 accounts, that are offering porn content through their tweets. These accounts include fake participants who are spreading links by attaching it with female pictures & sexual phrases to attract viewers. In that process, the US-based company found out that these fake accounts managed to attract than 3 crore links so far. This is one of the largest malicious campaigns ever recorded on a social network.
On other hand, an official report from the University of Oxford says – Governments around the world are enlisting ‘cyber troops’ to manipulate leading social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and others.
The report says the cyber attack on FB & Twitter is to falsely spread govt-oriented data and weaken critics’ argument. Interesting isn’t it? – The Oxford University Researchers found that 29 countries are using social media to manipulate the public interest domestically and also, with foreign audiences.
