Censor almost any comment on Twitter with exploit, part 2

2 points by elberto34 5 years ago · 0 comments · 1 min read


This technically does not fall under a bug bounty because I am exploiting a feature of twitter than than a coding vulnerability

Almost any comment on twitter can be suppressed and knocked below the page fold by spamming it with dozens of posts

Here is a video of it being done now

I targeted a comment under "Peter schiff" by user "sustain nova scotia".. I bombarded his comment with 70+ spam replies using a bot. You can see how it falls below the page fold and is hidden, instantly. Pretty sick trick huh?

It does not work on verified accounts though. Does not work on accounts that already have a lot of comments under them. Or on very established twitter users. But probably works on 90% of comments.

No comments yet.
