So I tried signing up for Twitter to do a little trolling there... - Divisions by zero

I thought: Okay I’ll do 15 of these and start spamming twitter. After I did those… it says I failed for some reason… Am I a bot? I’m starting to doubt if I’m human… 🤔

This feels like some kind of fever dream.
Knowing companies like Twitter they probably had some Minority Report style psychological profile on you from their instrusive data collection and predicted you were there to troll.
Lol I’ve never even used twitter before.
You have used the internet though.
I’ve never used the internet.
Good thinking, it’s a silly place.
Facebook makes shadow profiles of people who aren’t on the site. Twitter could very well be doing the same
Have you ever used a website with a “share on twitter” button?

1 of 15???

And they force the login to see the posts?

Is this a Speedrun on how to have the highest bounce rate on a web page?

Insane 😆 Is Elon actually trying to tank Twitter completely? I don’t understand it.
Saudis couldn't buy it directly
“To sign up, please complete this simple route problem: there are seven bridges in Könisberg…”
Finally my algorithms for planar graphs CS lecture payed off! :D
Are you using a VPN? Sometimes VPN ips are blacklisted and you’d get difficult captchas
No, I’m using my real IP.
And at the end of it, they’ll just ask you for your phone number anyway
That username says “yes”

So what you're saying is that Twitter successfully kept out a bad actor.

It's a shame that most of the users they have left are also in that category, but hey, they seem to be working on it.

Is it immoral to troll a platform that is owned by an evil corporation?
You trolling the platform, or the users?
Users exist to be trolled. That is their purpose.

This makes no sense. It was testing for humans, not for non-trolling humans. The test failed.

Also, trolling isn’t necessarily bad acting. Trolling is not abuse.
