THE SIZE OF A TWITTER BOTNET ARMY CURRENTLY LYING DORMANT.

The (potential) force is strong with this botnet. Two researchers in London have reportedly discovered the largest network of fake Twitter accounts comprising 350,000 bots that can be identified by their Star Wars tweets. The botnet was discovered when the researchers began sifting through Twitter accounts to see how the platform was being used, and analysis revealed that many of the fake accounts were linked, suggesting a single person, or a group, was controlling the botnet.
