If they do, I (and I believe at least a dozen other people) will seriously consider terminating my presence on Twitter. I'm mostly a passive user anyway, and the recent (well, 2-3 years time frame) changes, such as moving pictures and "sponsored tweets" have been quite annoying. The forced conciseness of the tweets is the only thing that keeps me from pushing the button. Now, I know I sound like a grumpy old cat, but when some things change, they eventually end up being nothing like the original. Just compare that with Reddit or Hacker News, for instance. The basic laws (and even visuals, in the case of HN) have been the same for some years now, yet the community is thriving.
