If users don't like Twitter's monetization strategy, they can use an some other microblog or social networking service.
It's kind of like saying "I don't like paying for coffee, so it's OK for me to break into Starbucks at night and steal some." It's not, because the terms of the transaction aren't that. They're "if you give me money, I will give you coffee" and you can agree and trade money for coffee or disagree in entirety and go without the coffee. You aren't allowed to walk in, take the coffee, and quip "I'm altering the deal; pray I don't alter it any further."
