Exists to reply/follow for advertising something, establish persona for a scam, or automatedly manipulate conversations. Also includes credible reports of DM solicitation for scam cold opens. Combination of objective criteria, trained pattern-matching, and identifiable specific campaigns/networks.

It is highly unlikely these people are really Elon Musk, Keanu Reeves, etc. Also includes impersonating Bluesky staff, impersonating organizations, and impersonating individual Bluesky users where I can verify in which direction the impersonation goes.

Accounts that exist solely or primarily to make repetitive, highly similar, often copy-pasted replies to posts about a single topic or closely related topics, to accounts they, in aggregate, have little or no existing connections to. "Highly similar" is a mostly-vibes, partly-objective definition.

These accounts are created to look like a stereotype of a specific identity to make "supportive" comments with exaggerated or outlandish positions. This list runs entirely on vibes and trained pattern-matching and should be run in manual mode. It WILL NOT include any/all false claims of identity.
