Notch is acting no more or less "loud" than any other Twitter user. The only difference is people's willingness to post articles about it.

- corobo 11y agoThere's a bit of a difference between Notch (2.41 million followers), me (207 followers) and some new egg user (0 followers) saying something on Twitter. As there's no actual volume control for text, followers is a decent loudness rating for Twitter
- SquareWheel 11y agoIf that is the case, then it's not possible to say anything at all without it being considered shouting. That seems a pretty unfair complaint to me.

With giant microphones comes giant responsibility. If he doesn't want 10 major blogs and newssites harping on his ever word, he should use an alt account. But, of course, when he personally tweets a company or CEO and calls them evil in front of millions of people, many who do business with the company... that's a heavily irresponsible way to behave unless you're sure of what you're saying. How many tens of thousands of $$ did Notch's tweet cost them?
