Feels like this falls ln the infosec team. Our team has a scanner that parses all* logs for passwords and PII.

Who ever gets self driving down first can get as many cars are they want. Two scenarios:

"Let Uber drive you to work for free then pay you to use your car for the day. We'll cover the gas!"

"GM is happy to partner with Lyft to be the first self diving car! GM Good. GM Hip"

Depends if the spam was used to initially seed the hashtag or if it comes in after genuine discussion between real people.

To me it seems like two different cases that are easy to distinguish.

Its $1000 due in a week. $1000 a month. Also at the $3.77 and hour I profited its still not very attractive. 10 hours a day all month to earn just rent.
