This option scans tweets by their origin and the behavior of the account. The filter takes out lower-quality content which includes automated tweets or duplicated tweets.

You can try it out, and if you feel like it’s negatively affecting your twitter experience, just turn it off and your twitter will go back to the way it was before. The San Francisco based company explains that the purpose of this feature is to learn and improve the entire twitter experience, so stay tuned to new changes and upgrades if you believe that the filter could be improved.

These two features will definitely take a step closer in protecting you from users who look to negatively impact your twitterverse. What they can’t do? Protect your android from viruses.
