So that users are not deceived by suchaccounts, the social network will now identify &#8220;good bots&#8221; — that’s what the company calls the new label. To determine whether an account is a &#8220;good bot&#8221; on Twitter, you need to find the robot icon with the inscription &#8220;Automated&#8221; directly above the tweet or profile. Twitter will also indicate who the developer or company behind the bot is.
