Finally some clarity we apparently broke the long standing rule of "use or access the Licensed Materials to create or attempt to create a substitute or similar service or product to the Twitter Applications”.
I guess I didn't realize long standing actually means a couple hours ago, once again I'm deeply sorry.

@paul Third-party clients are not bad for a service. If anything a third-party client lets me do something that the existing client won’t do.
And nevermind the fact Tweetdeck and Twitter’s app were originally third-party clients….
@OneJaeAtATime
Well, third party clients are only bad for a service if they don't show the ads they normally would show on their own client meaning they run the service but don't get the revenues from it.
As far as we're talking about that I can understand the move BUT
@paul and his and other Twitter clients are the ones that made Twitter big. All the big companies use third party clients because the one from Twitter serves only the basic needs.
They should have made an API for the ads.
@N1TeSH1FT @OneJaeAtATime
It’s so weird that Twitter never put promoted tweets (which is the majority of ads?) in their API.
The new Twitter is cutting corners at every opportunity, so of course the simply kill the API rather than putting in ads or requiring a subscription.
@cirdan12 While that may have been a reason I expect it’s just one of many. The largest clients were paid or even subscription.
Killing third party apps at this point will lose them more users than putting ads in the API would.
