Words used to mean things. The current HN submission title just says active, heavily implying accounts with any kind of activity (eg. like, follow/unfollow), not "users who Tweet".

Sure, clickbait headlines are the norm and the devil lurks in the details, but still, many comments have been spent on this, because it's clearly misleading.

~80% of email is spam, it doesn't surprise anyone, because it's so cheap to send spam. Similarly it's easy to create fake accounts and spam, yet it doesn't mean much.
