Twitter gone insane with DM policy?

[Tazdingo1]

I am just wondering, has twitter gone insane with their Twitter DM policy?

You can now enable the option to get DM'ed by anyone - also - the limit is lifted from 250 to 1000
Are they serious or?

I have taken the liberty to scrape 50 000 users on Twitter that can get DM'ed by anyone.
And since I don't know the risk of what would happen if you are to spam these users, I am giving the list
out for free for anybody that is interested to try!

Any one that is interested? Let me know and I will send you the list.
But please let me know what Twitter does afterwards.

How are you able to scrape users and tell if they are open to be DM'd by anyone?

Surely there must be limits in place for how many DM's you can send?

Yes, there is 1000/account.

So if you have 50 accounts, you can easily blast them all.

In my experience, they ban the accounts directly in that case.

But it is definately worth it since you are promoting your stuff to 50 000 new unique users.

Yes, i know, but the freaking limits on this bhw can not allow me to post here to tell him to send me a post to my box that is in (if you know what i mean)

I'd also be interested in knowing the footprint/way you can see open DM accounts if you fancy PM'ing me

Why am I having trouble sending Direct Messages?
There is an account limit of 1,000 Direct Messages sent per day. Once you reach this limit, you can't send any more Direct Messages for the day.
If you are sending duplicate Direct Messages to multiple accounts (including sending the same link to multiple accounts), this may be flagged as spam activity and can result in you not being able to send a Direct Message for a short time. You may need to wait at least 30 minutes without any attempt at sending a Direct Message before you'll be able to do so again.

Correct,
But, all you need is 50 new accounts for every blast that you send and then you are fine.
