When you lock the doors to keep people from leaving your party, it means the party is over.
#ElonMusk is so weak / desperate he is punishing #Twitter users for linking to other social media sites. Read more about the absurd policy here https://help.twitter.com/rules-and-policies/social-platforms-policy
Imagine AT&T preventing you from setting up call forwarding or even listing T-Mobile numbers on business stationary. We should have owned our social graphs from the start, not companies.
@baratunde This is not a new policy, other monopolistic social sites have previously exercised the same mentality.
A decade ago, Huffington Post was a very popular news and comment site. They blocked comments with links to other sites they saw as critical of them or competitors. It didn't help them lockdown their user base, it drove migration from them. As it will with the Bird Site.
There is a term for people in power who deny others freedom of speech and choice...and it's ain't "genius".
