I think the only feasible way Twitter could stop abuse is if it charged $100 per signup, and then ban people on the slightest whim. I don't see how anything else would work. Of course the downsides of a plan like this are so large that it wouldn't ever be done.
- Kristine1975 11y agoThe forum Something Awful does something like this: They charge $10 per signup. When you get banned you have to pay again to get back in.
- scholia 11y agoEven $1 would remove a lot of harassment because a lot of people would be less abusive if thought it would be easier to find them and hold them legally responsible for their comments.
- geofft 11y agoI expect there are plenty of abusive people on Twitter who could afford that $100 several times. There's no particular reason to believe that being abusive on Twitter is correlated with being poor.
