If someone starts following me on Twitter, and I see that he/she is also following thousands of other people, should I just block him or her? I can’t think of a legitimate reason why someone would follow so many people. The only explanations I can come up with are that people are doing this just as a game, or doing it with the hope that those who are followed will reciprocate.
Unless someone can convince me otherwise, I’m using the block feature like it’s free.
I’ve blocked several people whom I didn’t know personally who were following thousands of others. I think that’s legit.
