I think Twitter will sell your attention in addition to other revenue streams, given the chance.

  They’ll chase anything that makes money but if the ONLY source of money is our attention etc… that’s a worse spot right?

    It is for Twitter. Our attention is a synonym for showing ads. If advertisers step away because they got nervous about the behavior of the new owner then it's better for Twitter to have other sources of income than not.

  Exactly, your attention is always going to be sold to the highest bidder—that won't change. Now you just get worse 3rd party apps and integrations. Interesting to see the attempt to spin this as a positive.

    if the integrations and overall experience is worse... won't that mean there's less attention (and possibly less quality attention) to be sold?
