Other than the fact that it's twitter vs identi.ca, this is the same
bug.

Title:
  Spam from Twitter hash tags

Status in LoCo Team Portal:
  Confirmed
Status in Twidenash Microblog Aggregator:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is similar to bug #696037, but addresses a different problem.

  On the locoteams page for Ubuntu-us-mi, we track the #ubuntumi tag.
  Unfortunately, spammers have glommed on to this as a potential way to
  get some link juice for their wares.

  Would it be possible to disallow any post that has multiple hash-tags
  (or even multiple ubuntu* tags) from showing  up in the microblogging
  window? We don't have direct control over the hash tags like we do
  over the identi.ca groups, so policing this is extremely difficult.

  Thanks!
