The other option would be, which could be applied to anything we do, to be a responsible consumer/user but just like with everything else in life it is hard to do primarily for the reason that most services feed on our attention. The amount of your self you open up to public is the amount you lose from it and the more you put in the more you depend on and are addicted to the feelings that rise from using the service. You liked the feeling of being acknowledged by total strangers? Here, some more tweets for you strangers! You want to argue with me on this trivial subject? I'll prove you wrong! On the flip side, you can still both use Twitter and keep your sanity, but to me, it just isn't worth it. Life is too short to pay attention to every little thing that one comes across to.
