🛑🛑 This Tutorial was REFILMED!!! 🛑🛑 Please check out the MUCH BETTER version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSeqMYNhEHo In todays tutorial we will learn how to automate Twitter processes, or in other words - we will create an extra friendly liking bot! 🤖🤖🤖 This live streaming tutorial is perfect for beginners! all you need is to have Python installed on your system (I'm using Python 3.9 in case you'd like to match versions 🤪) and we will take care of everything else together! Complete tutorial code can be found on my Github: https://github.com/MariyaSha/TwitterBot The main purpose of this stream is to reflect on how easy it is to set up bots on social media platforms. Additionally, we will discuss whether you think it's good or bad - are extra layers of protection required? or do you like the current "wild wild west" situation? 🙃 And even though our bot is going to be fluffy and harmless - can you imagine what experienced black hats with malicious intents have been doing with this technology throughout the years? (hint: phishing, impersonating and other fraud-related issues) So I propose this experiment - will Twitter ever detect our bots? and how soon will this happen? (if at all) 🛑 BEFORE THE STREAM BEGINS 🛑 _____________________________________ ⭐ Please make sure you have Python installed on your computer! If you're not sure how, please checkout my Anaconda installation tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUZtVEDKXsk ⭐ Please make sure you have a ⚠️ dummy Twitter account ⚠️ in advance! This cannot be your personal account!! don't risk it! 🛑 WILL WE GET IN TROUBLE? 🛑 _____________________________________ one way to avoid trouble is to use a dummy account that is not associated with your personal account. (with that said, I've used my personal social media accounts multiple times for scraping 😅😅😅 needless to say that nothing happened, but keep in mind that your account may be suspended or God forbid deleted if it's labeled as a bot... it's probably not worth the risk!) Also, everything I cover in this tutorial can be easily found in the Selenium documentation: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/ Selenium is a popular tool that many developers use on a daily basis. I encourage you to do your own research and find out for yourself whether bot-making suits you or not 😀 ⭐ AUTOMATE OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS ⭐ _____________________________________ If you'd like to find out more about web scraping and automation - I have a full playlist of YouTube videos to get you up to speed:    • Web Scraping and Automation Simplified
