It gave me this error and told me to write an issue here to be able to fix it. I don't know ehy this happens but it immediately blocks all the accounts and makes scraping impossible. I tried to unlock the accounts as suggested with twscrape reset_locks but they were soon blocked again for the same reason. In general the accounts get blocked more and more easily and I don't know why. Can someone help?

You need to update your twscrape version in your pip.

If your twscape version is not 0.12 (Current version when I write this), chances are you are using the old one
