Spoilerbot

Executive Summary

Spoilerbot is an automated Twitter robot designed to ruin people’s enjoyment of works of fiction by preemptively revealing the ending. For instance, upon seeing that PotterFan525 tweeted “So excited to be reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince”, Spoilerbot would tweet “@PotterFan525 Snape kills Dumbledore”. In doing so, Spoilerbot potentially destroys PotterFan525’s ability to enjoy the sixth Harry Potter book.

Spoilerbot does not currently exist, but wow, it’d suck if it did.
