I wonder how you'll feel when they do this to you or someone you care about.

I don't quite understand the epistemic certainty people have that such weapons will never be turned against them, especially when history so dramatically demonstrates the opposite.

The entire Twitter platform seems totalitarian and a societal bad. Why would you ever want a billboard for your passing thoughts that literally not only can be read by a huge audience but will be read by a huge audience? Oh sure it’s great if you’re promoting something. But there’s clearly a reason beyond basic privacy to want your messages only readable by select few.

I’ve been out of social media for years and never quite ‘got’ twitter. From the outside, it seems like it’s having a totalitarian effect on society. What you say will be widely viewed - and “judged.”

On that my friend we 100% agree. Widening the window of discussion, I would view it as a 100x societal good for Twitter itself and anything that pretends to it, to disappear.
