LOL this is not how you deal with "data scraping," this is how you deal with a catastrophic loss of system capacity.
You limit data scraping by blocking things a human user couldn't do, like access a thousand posts a minute. This is aimed directly at reducing normal activity across the whole system.
@wxChris13 @maxkennerly he intends to crash it. Nothing else makes sense. Though there is this too And…we may know why…enough to be dangerous. They are under a massive denial of service attack…launched from twitter. It’s rather funny 👇🤡🤣😆😂👀

This is a video of my video of Twitter self-DDOSing itself played from a Tweet while the bug is still active and the page itself continues to flood Twitter with requests. Now notice the trending topics in the sidebar: #TwitterDown, WTF Twitter, Rate Limit Exceeded, Damn Twitter This might be the most perfect screen video ever recorded. 😆 #selfDDOS

I'd agree, but there is one other, sensible explanation.
Musk is so detached from reality, so isolated from anytime but sycophants, and so egotistical that he actually believes he's saving Twitter, preserving free speech, and about to start making money.
In short, he's not that bright, so things don't have to actually make sense.
He's not playing 4D chess.
He just thinks he is.
