@shoq It’s a great new advertising rate card though.
@shoq WTF is data scraping?

>> WTF is data scraping?

Is that a serious question? Apologies if sarcasm is lost in post.

@Lensflare Data scraping refers to programmatically extracting text from a webpage by just loading the page and copying its contents. Many have “scraped” twitter for years, Especially Nitter.net, which also seems to have gone offline today. I think we know why.
@shoq Freedom of speech! Wait... You already posted 300 times today. No tweets for you 😂
@shoq
Doesn’t matter what he calls it. The self-proclaimed know-it-all, owner-of-the-world made a modification that kills its use. Open a tweet to read responses and the reply count becomes part of your daily allotment. Advertisers must be thrilled as users head to the nearest exit.
@Dbarcon @shoq But also do image loads count? You could post 600 tweets with 1x1 pixel images, then hotlink those all on a single web page and get people to go there. Boom.

So Space Karen is going to charge advertisers to post and users to read; I cannot imagine what the engagement numbers are going to look like.

Oh, wait. Yes I can.

@shoq This is Elon soft launching tiered service with severe limitations on free accounts. It doesn't take long to scroll through 600 posts.
