  2FA would be ideal, but GeoIP restriction requires no action on the part of the end-user. If implemented properly, Twitter should have been alerted that something was fishy when an IP from the Netherlands sent a successful login password and prevented it, then e-mailed the user to ask if the login attempt was legitimate. It saved my butt once when Gmail prevented an IP originating in India from logging into my account and alerted me.

  If Twitter banned Trump, a Trump-branded Twitter clone would pop up overnight with a built-in audience of 87M followers.
