The audit, which was done for the social media giant by software firm SparkToro, found that 49.3% of the president’s followers are "fake followers," according to Newsweek.
SparkToro has defined "fake followers" as "accounts that are unreachable and will not see the account’s tweets (either because they’re spam, bots, propaganda, etc. or because they’re no longer active on Twitter)."
Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is attempting to buy Twitter, has expressed concern over the growing number of fake accounts and proposed a potential crackdown on the sham accounts.
Likely parallels the 2020 presidential election vote count.
