I second this. Twitter and all other platforms need to start providing services that people might actually want to pay for and I do not mean blue checkmarks. Music, movies, games, E2EE messaging/mail, membership driven discounts to partners and so many more options... all with some guarantee of control over ones data and control over what third parties have access to ones data.
Platforms have gone from obeying laws to obeying advertisers ethical and ideological preferences. Every member profile on every system should have checkboxes in a data-sharing tab that shows who wants my data and the platform should give me a financial incentive to leave the access enabled for said party and the ability to mute ads from each third party. If I leave ads from a specific advertiser unmuted then I get discount options with them.
