In a lengthy Twitter thread on Monday, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal said it would be difficult to conduct an external review to determine the percentage of spam and fake accounts on the platform.

“Unfortunately, we don’t believe that this specific estimation can be performed externally, given the critical need to use both public and private information (which we can’t share),” Agrawal explained. “Externally, it’s not even possible to know which accounts are counted as mDAUs on any given day.”

I can see why. Twitter booted me 3 years ago for being a bot.

Twitter gets to define what's a bot.

Wonder if Twitter told its shareholders that...

In other words, he was blowing smoke when he said it was less than 5%.

Now he's being called out on it. Good!
