Spam Labels have been public for a month and we've seen significant updates to the number of casters with Level 2 Labels (the good one) and the consequences of the Level 0 Label (the worst one) via the Great Follower Purge of February 2025. 

With a resurgence of bot-like accounts this weekend, the algorithm will only get more aggressive. 

I've made significant revisions on this article as the team has given us more clarity around the algorithm as well as included resources on how to save your friends from spam jail and a thread on the teams thinking about spam. 

Please remember this is guidance, not gospel. The algo is secret.  Always appreciate any feedback or areas I can clarify.

I didn’t intend to keep talking about Spam. I really thought this chapter was closed. But I’ll embrace it. I’ll keep talking about it until it’s better. And Japan will fuel me. I will wear these to FarCon in solidarity. Be careful out there. The spam algo is getting more aggressive.

More aggressive? I didn't even think it's possible 😅

100,000 accounts lost their good label on Thursday.

Oh wow, that sent chills down my spine and I had to go check my account. I'm safe but what in the world is happening?
