    Maybe I’m dumb, but this is starting to seem like these Tech CEOs are dumber than we thought.

    Why not just make 4000 accounts and have distributed scraping? What are they going to do next? “Unverified Twitter accounts can only be accessed 10 times?”

      I don’t think this has anything to do with data scraping. They seem like can’t pay Google server bills and now got into metered connection

      They’ve always been dumb. You don’t put smart people in CEO chairs, you put smart people to do the actual work and leave all the decision making to idiots. Hence the results.

        The ones who have that position because they provided capital or such really have nothing left to offer. And I bet that actually really bothers these venture capitalists. They have no use other than their money. When they try to show that they do, they prove that they don’t.
