Low quality clickbait is almost always tied to a commercial end, be it ad click fraud, ad view farming or malware/phishing on the extreme end of the spectrum.
Anything policy violating that's considered "Spam" is likely to be tied to illegal activity 9 times out of 10.
Not everything with a commercial end is a scam. I get spam for legitimate products or services all the time. It’s spam because they are abusing a communication channel as an advertising channel, not necessarily because they are trying to scam anyone.
The argument here isn’t that there are no corner cases where legitimate businesses with 401ks tax returns and all that send you too many communications.
On twitter specifically, low quality clickbait is almost always tied to policy violating , if not illegal activity.
If you can’t even admit that, well, you should really engage in conversation with more good faith or more expertise than you have at present.
What is your evidence of that?
The OP was about spam not scams. I already identified that you were moving the goalpost or unintentionally projecting a different issue onto this issue.
My point is that spam on Twitter is to be expected. Taking Twitter seriously as a discussion platform is as naive as taking Tik Tok seriously as an video education platform.
My statements are backed by experience.
