   I’m getting a few reports that some bird.makeup accounts have forwarded messages that don’t appear anymore on their Twitter page in the last day or so. I don’t have much to go on right now to investigate this, but have anyone seen suspicious posts?

     @graf I mean that’s a lot of work to ask me to unban poa.st from bird.makeup

     Multiple persons have confirmed this is happening to me. I have turned off all boosts from bird.makeup to mitigate this vulnerability.

     One of the upstream Nitter instance is injecting in profiles false boosts regarding the Palestine/Israel conflict.

     I haven’t seen anything personally on the hundreds of bird.makeup accounts that I follow, but keeping it accurate is very high on the priorities of this project. If it’s a vulnerability or a bug I want to fix it

     You were offered guest_accounts to handle the scraping internally by Zedeus, what you’re doing is a dick move scraping public instances for the data. Furthermore you apparently prevent access to people from poa.st but feel its ok to scrape their Nitter instance for data.

     @p @Salastil @vincent this burden is heavy but we alone shall bare it pete. no sweat, your twitter linx r safe (I don't even think you use our nitter)
     
     the whole point of all of this was to nudge him into doing the right thing and implementing API like nitter or at be consistent and not scrape our service when he blocks us. instead, he took the hard coded values and moved it to his in-database config adding an additional "lowtrust" boolean. not implementing checks that the posts are even from the right account, not using the Twitter API like we are. still scraping nitter instances. just now he's instead hiding it.
     
     I learned a lot from this experiment tho

     @Salastil @vincent Yeah, but apparently Zedeus has automated handing those out.
     
     (Also I am using https://github.com/iv-org/smart-ipv6-rotator being able to get around Google and Twitter as an example next time someone tells me that we're actually ready for IPv6 and it will be fine.)

     Zedeus doesn’t run the Twitterterminator service – Unittaker does. Zedeus has been largely absent for the past few weeks

     Sourcing the guest accounts is only easy if you have access to ipv6, Otherwise you’re somewhat screwed.

     @Salastil @vincent Yeah, especially given how easy it is to run your own Nitter instance instead of chewing up capacity on public ones hosted by other people.

     @vincent I did think it was strange that the PlayStation account was suddenly retweeting a bunch of posts about Israel.

     I thought the Twitter account must have been hacked.
