RE: My initial investigation how I am doing it... (and a public apology)
How can you know whether or not an account is a bot account?
How can you know that a group of interrelated accounts are the accounts of a single user, and not a group of interconnected individuals?
I don't care whether it is a bot or not. Bots are still controlled by someone. If one account is powering up the bots and they are working together that either is an individual or a group controlling them.
I did not say I could tell. I said it could be either of those. My goal is not to define which are and are not bots. My goal is to show the financial relationships between the accounts.
Ok, let me re-read this. Are there any other previous blogs I might need to read?
That depends upon what your objective is. If your objective is to challenge me then I can't tell which blogs you might wish to read. I provided the two posts I spoke about as hyperlinks in this document.
There are other people doing their own different investigations with some overlap.
The purpose of this post was to state what I am doing as there have been those expressing an interest in helping. I thus described what I am currently doing and what I PLAN to do. If someone beats me to what I PLAN to do I am totally okay with this. I am not doing this for status, following, etc. I am doing this so the information that is relevant to further investigation is available in a format easier to mentally digest without having to repeat this process every time we pose a hypothesis and then go to put it to the test.
Hey, I'm new here. I don't really understand what's going on. :)
I do tend to ask questions like those above for clarification and to check. It's not a challenge, if I ask (in this instance)"How would you know if you hit your target from 100 miles away?" it doesn't matter to me if you shoot at your target, only trying to help you verify that you hit it when you do.
I'm not sure what's going on, ATM. :)
Ok. Thanks for the clarification. I was not sure why you were asking. Thus I said it depends upon your objective. :)
As to other posts. Stay tuned as myself and others will be providing more information as it becomes available. There are older posts, but it'd take me some time to dig them up and my initial reports will not be about slinging dirt at anyone so those older posts are mostly irrelevant for the first stages of the investigation.
