An interesting move... at an interesting time!!! I posted few days ago here, on HN "Ask HN: Do you know a regular Twitter user?" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21584586 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21584586) ;-) I see it as an interesting move because it will allow Twitter to have a more "honest" number of real used account. Moreover, for Twitter, it's a way to build stronger engagement: a lot of people will connect to unused account to avoid the risk of loosing it (even if they don't really use it, just to avoid loosing it). So the active accounts number will not be that honest! In a way it's a kind of FUD... And it reminds everybody that Twitter is about "live and news", not building some kind reference.
