    • Your Google search result redirects to Twitter
    • you click and open the link
    • Twitter asks you to login to see the tweet.
    • You close that tab and move on to next search result.

    Best way to avoid traffic to your site, then complain about revenue loss from advertisements.

      medium started doing the same shit, sometimes it has interesting articles I’d like to read, but then they started putting in behind registration so I just no longer open medium links.

        Perhaps. But a rather large issue arises when your content is generated primarily by users who wouldn’t want to pay for a service.

        There is also the issue where if you are having to pay to get around interaction limits is it really free speech? Or just limited to those that can afford to pay?

            Imagine using Twitter to train AI. “Why is my AI such an asshole!?”

              I’d argue it’s a poisoned dataset. You can’t validly train an AI based on content that contains a non-trivial percentage of bot-generated content.

        He doesn’t really care about free speech. Just his opinions. (He is shadowbanning Ukrainian accounts btw)

        Didn’t work when they blocked non-registered visitors.

          It is working now though, the login restriction on the official Twitter website is still in place

            Oh damn, I did realise it’s working again a few days ago, so I just assumed Twitter is open too.
