From GP: > If they ban you then you take everything, including your profile domain, ... This reads like censorship resistance against moderation/management going insane on its own, to me. And in reality, that rarely happens. It's ongoing on Twitter, kind of, but that's less than once in a decade occurrence, and the crazy element wasn't internal. What happens more often is some fundamentalist group or something starts harassing companies, often leveraging advertisers, credit card companies, perhaps some backend APIs too, sometimes even foreign laws way outside jurisdictions, to get them swallow their agendas. That leads to bans and insane policies getting introduced. And, if you look at what happened to Twitter in last few years, I think you can see the latter of above two descriptions is closer to what happened to it; whether it was foreign conspiracy, or purely to that guy's insanity, or politics, it was external force that lead to the situation that necessitated escape. It was sane-ish up to the acquisition. |
