That may be, but the issue in that case has nothing to do with the specific forum used for the discussion.

- Kylekramer 15y agoWhy not? In this case, a Twitter consensus is not near sufficient evidence for the claim (especially once you see the actual consensus of 6 guys, one of whom disagrees and none of whom seem to be particularly well regarded researchers: http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/spreads7.png http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/spreads7.png) While it is nice to claim all forums are equal, it just is not true. If he said a group of experts agreed and then linked to their tweets, I wouldn't cry foul. But just claiming a Twitter consensus is like me interviewing the first five people I saw in Times Square and calling it a day.
