Twitter rules changes and what streamers need to know

Twitter is updating their rule and policy document and here is what streamers should know.

The update focuses on cracking down on bot related activities but will also impact anyone using automation type of tweeting.

Here is what you need to know about the rules update:
  • Do not post duplicate content to multiple twitter accounts
  • Do not post the same content more than once to a single Twitter account
  • Do not use any form of automation to perform actions such as likes or retweets across many accounts that you have authorized.

Here is the official blog post on twitter about the update changes - https://blog.twitter.com/developer/en_us/topics/tips/2018/automation-and-the-use-of-multiple-accounts.html 

If you use any sort of automation to generate tweets when your stream goes live, make sure the URLs, the titles and description content is also unique.
