- harperlee 6y agoWell it's human nature, really. You are not constantly stepping back and rationally evaluating the present moment. If you have a small bunch of followers and you start a conversation with them, the topic can evolve towards more sensitive matters. Kind of like with normalization of deviance in privacy terms. You just focus on the content of the conversation. As soon as you are answering to anyone, your mind focuses on only that person who said something to you. Criminals post Facebook photos with evidence of their crimes constantly, as another example.
- fabatka 6y agoThanks, I can see your point better. I guess my real concern is about Twitter being considered the default communication channel for many people. I mean it is perfect for getting updates from orgs/teams the quickest way possible, but to use it as a forum... for me it is incomprehensible.
