This also seems like another attempt to combat web scraping. They put search behind login and now tweets themselves to try to push people to use their API. Twitter is still the bigest source used in public sentiment analysis and it's still relatively easy to scrape with login so this just shifts everything to grey/dark markets. The essentially means public researchers, students w/e lost access while dark market value increases significantly. So, as per character, this just empowers corporations and punishes public. Hopefully this means the upcoming end of Twitter.
