Twitter Warned Over Fake Account Failures
(Twitter Warned For Failing To Remove Fake System)
Regulators issued Twitter a formal warning today. The company did not do enough to remove fake accounts. This is a serious problem. Fake accounts spread false information. They mislead users. They can harm public trust.
Government officials stated the rules clearly. Social media platforms must identify and take down fake accounts quickly. Twitter did not meet this requirement. The warning demands immediate action. Twitter must fix its systems. It must show progress within 30 days.
Experts say fake accounts are widespread on Twitter. They are used for scams. They manipulate public opinion. They impersonate real people. This creates confusion. Users often cannot tell real accounts from fake ones.
Twitter responded to the warning. The company said it is working on the problem. It claimed it removes millions of fake accounts every month. But regulators said this effort is not enough. They need proof Twitter is doing more. They want stronger safeguards.

The fake account problem is not new. Twitter faced criticism before. Critics argue the platform moves too slowly. They believe profit motives sometimes override safety concerns. This warning adds pressure. It signals regulators are watching closely. Failure to comply could lead to fines. It might result in stricter rules for all social media. Users need a safer online space.
