I find it concerning because in western democracies, small but loud groups often get what they want over and above the majority. Hardly anyone actually thinks Twitter (or rather all social media) should be forced to close down. But that is what will happen when a small group of otherwise conflicting people all keep demanding legislation like this. Some of them will be pleased, but 99% of people will not.
The media are only too willing to wrote uninformed, uncritical reviews of those loud groups' demands and that is both part of the problem and a problem itself.
All of this is pushing me (normally a classic liberal) towards libertarianism: If you don't like twitter don't use it (I don't), but don't tell me what I can or cannot do with my time...
