Twitter is women tell sex fantasies on videoconsidering creating special account types for humor and satire accounts, a company representative let slip during a Wednesday press call about verification.
While detailing the company's already announced plan to create "automated" and "memorial" account types in an online presentation to reporters, Twitter product manager B Byrne offhandedly mentioned that the company wasn't stopping there.
"So we're starting with automated accounts. We're also exploring other account types on Twitter," Byrne explained. "Memorial accounts are next on the list. And we're also thinking about things like humor and satire accounts, which we'll be exploring later."

"People want to know who they're talking to. And understanding the purpose of an account will help people make their own engagement, trust, and follow decisions," Byrne explained in the Wednesday call.
