@gravitos Yeah, but I don't like that they're scraped without consent. If bird.makeup would send Twitter users a message saying "hey this person wants to follow you, may we mirror your posts so that they can see them?" it would be super cool.

@gravitos If the user's answer is going to be "no", then don't do it. Consent is important. @gravitos We're talking about the user, not the platform. Just because the platform is evil & doesn't ask for consent doesn't mean we also get to be evil & not ask for consent. |
@just_a_rock This is Twitter we're talking about. The answer is "NO".
