Nobody I've read is claiming they have a right to access Twitter API. Twitter is legally entitled to do whatever the hell they want. Most of what I've read falls in one of two categories: 1) Criticism of Twitter for implementing a policy that has generated so much ill-will for the company, and essentially prevented 3rd party devs from solidifying Twitter as a kind of a microblogging platform of the Net. Clearly Twitter believes this will serve them better. Most people disagree. 2) Warning for trusting closed platforms.
