#2Twitter has a new policy that states if you're blocked by a small number of people in a short space of time then your account will be shadow-banned (you can tweet but it won't show up in people's timelines). This is probably a quick and easy way to get caught out by that.

Quick fix: create new account that will check if tweets are visible to that user.

If your marketing strategy involves throwaway Twitter accounts (or spamming strangers via Twitter), you’re doing it - for any definition of “it” - wrong. Come up with something better; it’s not hard.

#7This may be legal but it certainly isn't ethical. Companies that use your service will likely suffer brand damage as a consequence.

Thanks, this is something real quick the team did in a day for our internal use. This is more like Ask HN, I am open to ideas and thoughts to do it better :)

I thought of like a version of cold emailing but more targetted. Just a little hack to get users. Not sure if this isn't ethical. But I am open to shutting it down if everyone thinks it's not ethical :) This isn't our primary product, just stumbled on the idea while I was exploring growth tactics.

You obviously do not work in marketing.
