In addition to creating what is likely to be an epic shitstorm for Twitter ops/sec/PR employees and leadership, the net result of this will just be further fuel for those who see tech giants as censors of political speech, as well as embolden those who wish to further regulate these companies. A pretty stupid move if you ask me.
