@cstross@wandering.shop @jef@mastodon.social I wrote a script to block every user who was following me. It took weeks to run and kept getting rate limited. Eventually it got my account locked, meaning nobody can follow it again, so mission accomplished!

@jwz@mastodon.social @cstross@wandering.shop @jef@mastodon.social I once did that by accident when I wrote a script to block all followers of a dickhead user who was sending his followers to dogpile me. Left off a parameter from the query and blocked half my own followers before I was able to cancel the script. Glad to be long rid of Twitter now and somewhere where abuse gets taken more seriously
