Twitter Is Working on Paid DMs?
- MichaelZuo 4y agoActually not a bad idea. Even if used mostly by promoters, spammers, trolls, bots, etc., who want to pay to direct message, it still seems like a win/win for everyone. They get their eyeballs on message, the receiver gets paid for their attention, Twitter likely will get some additional revenue. I personally get spam DMs too, even though I intentionally keep my follower count low, so I can see how this would cut down on spam by a huge amount for bigger accounts.
- CM30 4y agoI think the big issue is that for many people, they disable it to avoid harassment/bullying/trolling, not spam. So now those same people can just pay for an account every time they keep going (which may or may not be likely, granted).
- soulofmischief 4y agoAnother big issue is I don't want the same person operating my message board of choice to also be operating a pay-to-pay spam service. I can think of few things more antithetical. How far we have fallen from the days of bulletin boards.

The original sin, before even the quote RT.
