There's something funny about Warren posting on Twitter while shouting about antitrust. I really wish government wouldn't make public announcements on closed platforms.

That aside, it seems like an easy way around that would just be for Apple to adopt RCS in addition to iMessage.
- jtriangle 3y agoLet's not turn mountains into molehills here, Twitter isn't really closed, it's just authwalled. So, burner email is all you need to read all the tweets, errr, X's?, that you want. Also, far simpler to take care of beeper, just make all the message bubbles the same color. They'd lose their entire userbase if that happened.
- ldarby 3y agoIt's viewable via Nitter: https://nitter.net/SenWarren/status/1733956234200445130 https://nitter.net/SenWarren/status/1733956234200445130 But I agree with the earlier point, that it is a closed platform. If you want to respond, I thought it requires a phone number now in addition to email? It used to at least. And if Twitter doesn't like you, why is your ability to communicate with an official regulated by this private company? And Nitter is likely to get shutdown by Twitter any moment now in the same way as Apple is trying to shutdown Beeper.
