Bot Sentinel

Extension is more inaccurate today due to crackdowns on API access.

I love the idea and it does help to identify bots. However, it is not accurate. For example, I've been on twitter since 2014, I rarely disparage individuals, post "fake news" or even curse. But yet, I'm at a 41% rating? The only thing I can figure is that people reporting you for anything can downgrade your rating.

Not very accurate. If an account drops a lot of F bombs, they get labelled disruptive. Meanwhile, malicious bot accounts are labelled as normal. As always, "AI" is a failure.

Be aware of this extension its is not accurate.

It would be great if it had the option to Only point out bots/fake accounts. Not a fan of the percentage rating as it seems arbitrary, considering other algorithms identified bot behaviour and this app gave them a 0%.

Good idea. terrible implementation.

Recent update of Bot Sentinel broke Twitter layout for me

The work done by this app deserves a Nobel Prize. I have removed, with the help of this app, dozens of troll accounts through Twitter's report function. Bot Sentinel is a marvel at meting out who is a real person with real opinions, and who is a provocateur with an agenda, who doesnt debate in good faith. A simple download that is small and doesn't slow the computer in any way shape or form. Them you will begin seeing the ratings on people on Twitter. You can also click "Check User" on anyone...

I don't know how to search for people and see all the fake accounts they have used. A friend looked up a Romance Scammer for me and it showed he has had 8 different accounts, several still active. The main theme is pretending to be an Oslo, Norway green house owner. He used "Thor Erikson" in different versions and is now he is using @Georgeofnature and @naturelsker8 and uses photos stolen from Spanish actor Javier Delgado Tocho for his profile. Police think it's based in Nigeria.

When I first installed it seem pretty good but after a couple of years and no transparency into why it was rating accounts it has lost it's usefulness.
