    For those wondering. Yes is real post.

    Maybe he is thinking of scraping? He did file a lawsuit trying to go after four different people for “scraping”. But one, the identity of the four hasn’t even been figured out yet. And two, the Ninth Circuit ruled last year that scraping by itself is not illegal and leaned on the standard the Fifth Circuit put in that, scraping is only illegal if it enriches a person.

    Either way, I guess now that I’ve linked his post it’s up to you all to decide how you will handle the moral conundrum of downloading a Tweet.

      With Phony Stark there’s no need to make up crazy bullcrap tweets! He’s clearly talking about plagiarism - something he’s an expert at - as he’s started paying his Tweeting buddies, so obviously Tweets are now My Precious commodity. Which from a libertarian/right wing perspective is where he’s been shifting access, which makes no advertising sense but again that’s Mush for you.

    At this point I’m pretty sure he’s got a neuralink embedded in his ass that tweets this stuff out. It’s fascinating if you think about it that way, and makes a lot more sense.
