"Twitter’s political function is to gather bands of like-minded crazies from all over the world and concentrate them directly into the mindspace of journalists and politicians. We should ... have a deep and long conversation about whether this is a healthy thing for any society." https://twitter.com/Noahpinion/status/1344848057939070976

Coordinated disinformation campaigns work well on Twitter because there's a false assumption of independence between accounts. "a couple thousand people can terrorize ... a huge force multiplier ... it feels like a vast army"

I'd say one solution is to penalize accounts exhibiting bot and shill-like coordinated behavior. Another is to reverse that, to promote provably real accounts by real people, discounting all others as unreliable until they're proven to not be bots or shills.
