@NoiseColor It is mostly an issue that administrators have to handle, but if they don't handle it, it starts spilling over into fediverse conversations.

Basically, a bunch of people create fake accounts for the purpose of sending spam or other nefarious purposes.

It takes up server space, and potentially contains illegal content. Basically stuff an admin does not want on their servers.
