A new day, a new porn botnet, or rather the reincarnation of a banned porn botnet to be precise. It's bigger and has evolved a bit, but the mission is the same: get naive people to click the link on the accounts' profiles to formynudes(dot)site. #DontBeNaive

This botnet consists of (at least) 347 accounts, created in several batches in June and July 2020. These accounts post most of their tweets via the Twitter Web App (allegedly), and have ramped up volume considerably in the last five days.
Although the use of the Twitter Web App generally indicates organic tweets, the repetitiveness of the accounts and 24/7 activity strongly suggests automation. Note that many of the repeated tweets encourage the reader to visit the website promoted in the accounts' profiles.
