The question may not be as baffling as it sounds &#8211; half of the people following Biden are fake. Twitter recently released details on the bots that make up 5 per cent of its active users. Elon Musk, whose company is eyeing Twitter, has commented on the issue.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"222_million\"><\/span>22.2 million<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to a recent audit conducted by social media company SparkToro, nearly half of President Joe Biden&#8217;s Twitter followers are fake. The company defined fake followers as those who don&#8217;t exist, are bots, or have no active account on Twitter. President Biden&#8217;s real followers are the 22.2 million people he has listed on his official Twitter page. In addition to claiming to have 22.2 million followers, President Biden uses video clips and other media to communicate with his audience.<\/p>\n<p>Newsweek&#8217;s analysis cited SparkToro, a free tool that analyzes social media accounts and uncovers fake followers. It specifically used the official presidential account of Biden, which boasts a staggering 22 million followers. The company said that it uses a sample of 2,000 followers to verify the authenticity of the account. Some Twitter users even use these fake accounts to spread misinformation and scam people out of money.<\/p>\n<p>The new audit shows that nearly half of President Biden&#8217;s Twitter followers are fake, and that 49.3 percent are new accounts that don&#8217;t exist. SparkToro&#8217;s analysis focused on three factors: default profile images, location issues, and new users. Elon Musk has also expressed his concerns about fake accounts and has proposed a crackdown to prevent the spread of false accounts. This potential crackdown on fake accounts on Twitter is a great step in protecting the public from fraudulent accounts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"223_million\"><\/span>22.3 million<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>President Joe Biden has 22.3 million followers on the social media site Twitter. According to a new report, nearly half of those followers are fake. The findings were based on an analysis of new users, default profile pictures, and location problems. Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently voiced his concern over fake Twitter accounts. Biden may also lose followers if Twitter cracks down on the fake accounts. The news about fake Twitter accounts is concerning for anyone with a presidential campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Recent media reports have misinterpreted the data pertaining to the @JoeBiden account. These posts have been spread by non-credible media outlets and celebrities. One of these fake stories claimed that nearly half of the president&#8217;s Twitter followers were fake. However, the audit also looked at high-profile users such as Donald Trump Jr., who has 8.2 million followers on Twitter. In short, the media has done a lousy job of reporting on high-profile personalities on social media.<\/p>\n<p>A recent news article by Newsweek claimed that a fake account was discovered on the Twitter platform. Another study conducted by SparkToro, a software company that conducts audience research, revealed that nearly half of Biden&#8217;s Twitter followers are fake. The findings were not verified by NDTV, so this claim should be taken with a grain of salt. However, it is worth noting that Twitter does not verify or authenticate the results of these tools.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nFJDaho0TQo\" height=\"198\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"354\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Many Followers Does Joe Biden Have on Twitter?
