Twitter Sidestepped Russian Account Warnings, Former Worker Says - Bloomberg
'In early 2015, a Twitter employee discovered a vast amount of Twitter accounts with IP addresses in Russia and Ukraine. '
'"For many years, Twitter has fought a high volume of spam and spam accounts originating from Russia and Ukraine. ', "During Twitter's testimony this week, multiple congressmen pressed the company about the percentage of fake or spam accounts."
'Many pro-Trump bots that were active during the 2016 U.S. elections were long-dormant accounts, according to researchers. '
'"Anything we would do that would slow down signups, delete accounts, or remove accounts had to go through the growth team," Miley said. '
