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%.

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 at any time to get their updated rating. It is also GREAT for finding out if you yourself are not debating in good faith, as changing how you deal with your social media will change your rating. I found myself being too agro during the calamity that was Jan 6th, and my rating started trending to the toxic. I made changes and learned a new way to approach sensitive topics that I have strong opinions about. This is more than an app to find bad guys, at it's core Christopher Bouzy has given us an app to teach us how to treat each other.

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.

The worst way to detect bots, period.

If you have a 0% then it's safe to say that you're either a bot, a corp, or someone who doesn't want to get involved with anything, the higher rating only means they sometimes talk about political things (on any side).

This service which claims to be nonpartisan has been used rather as a trolling radar by its owner Christopher Bouzy. Twitter accounts which voice opposition to the political views of Bouzy are now being flagged as disruptive and problematic. When challenged with this on Twitter Bouzy blocked me refusing even a discussion as to why. Not just mine but several accounts who have taken critical positions against the Democratic establishment have seen our trust ratings changed. Ms Tara Reade who has credibly accused Biden of sexual assault has seen her rating upgraded to disruptive leading to the view of such ratings are strictly political. The service even fails to identify actual bots Briahna Joy Gray recently had several identical comments on her posts all with a normal rating. Bot Sentinel recommends reporting "problematic" accounts to twitter which has caused many to lose their accounts, a fact Bouzy revels in twitter.com/cbouzy . As this tool is being used as a means of harassment I'm asking Google remove it from not just the Chrome App store but also the Play store as well until such time its very obvious political bias should and must be flagged. Anyone who has lost their accounts due to the mass reporting should file a complaint with https://onlinecensorship.org/

The author made a change to a stable algorithm that has turned people that were considered "normal" for years to suddenly DANGEROUS. The app automatically blocks these users so app users do not even know it. I have checked more than 100 profiles where this has happened and all of them lean differently politically. This multiyear trust building means that one person hit a switch to automatically block hundreds of thousands of people. I did not accuse him of censorship but expressed concern in a review that the AI is broken and his response was to attack me on twitter and get others to do the same. No one should have this kind of power but certainly not those that attack their own customers. A simple ratio check of those that went from 10% to 80% should show that either the new or old AI was broke. After his response and vetting 100 accounts, I now think his goal is to censor those that don't agree with him and I have a 4% score. The AI isn't picking on me but automatic censorship is dangerous and the AI is broken.
