One of the takeaways of AM being hacked was that a ton of accounts were fake, and existed to create the idea of a busy site, to add social proof and validity-by-numbers.

The AM hacks were like decade and change ago, and Tate's fanbase is mostly younger. I'm sure there is some overlap but probably small.
