This is hilariously stupid. I mean, just painfully stupid. And, yes, it's real.

@mmasnick this would be insanely dumb even with astronomical limits set just to kill scrapers.

But 600/day for regular users? On a platform you're trying to sell ad impressions on?

I hit the limit in 11 minutes casually scrolling. You can't even read your own tweets and their replies without gas-pedaling into your rate limit with it so low.

A single viral or controversial tweet and you're done.

@rodhilton @mmasnick this may be the thing that gets me to open the Twitter app, just to see what happens.
