Hey tweeps - anyone got experience with anti-brigading tools? A far-right troll has asked his followers to harass me and tools like Block Chain and Red Block only let me block the first 500 of them, leaving tens of thousands able to @ me.
I've reported the account and the participants in the brigading to Twitter and spoken to some contacts there. I'm sure there will be some kind of resolution. But in the meantime, there's about 200k twitter accounts (brigaders and their followers) I'd like to block.
I paid for a year's worth of premium @blocktogether but can't figure out how to get it to do this. Meanwhile, I keep tripping Twitter's anti-bot stuff and getting locked out of my accounts.
I've heard so much about anti-harassment tools for mass-block, but it seems they only work for small-scale brigading - no way to block all the followers of a high-profile account when they target you. Is this really right?
Like I can report and block guys like this as one-offs, but I'd really rather just deal with it in bulk, pre-emptively.
