Is that really a fair characterization though? It may also be that many people feel obligated to use Twitter because it is already one of the "winners" and may not go anywhere due to network effects. So not engaging on it is the same as being silenced/unheard. Similarly, I don't think it would make sense to say "a billion users choose to use Google" and [N] voters voted for [politician].
