Spammers from a particular company are repeatedly signing up and following people
Clickaudit spammers are repeatedly signing up and following people who don't protect their entries. I've had several of these in the past 48 hours (I've blocked each one in turn), and it's starting to get quite irritating.

Inappropriate?Yes. Someone else has noticed this too.
I'll log a support ticket (type: spam request) about it within the day.

I'm not sure twitterblacklist is still operational. I follow @hex and I think he's gone to identi.ca

Inappropriate?I really think that Twitter should consider banning web sites that repeatedly tweet their URL. It's clear that ClickAudit is responsible for a lot of the spam that has been flooding Twitter in the past week. At this point Twitter should send a notice to whoever runs that operation informing them that their URL has been completely banned from Twitter. Any tweets - either explicit or shortened via a URL shortening service like TinyURL - should never make it to the public timeline.
I really think that this is needed now because the spammers are just creating new spam accounts as soon as the old ones get shut down. It's become a game of Whack-A-Mole.
I’m concernded
