Why does he keep prattling on about his site's TOS? When viewing something from Twitter, you're not bound to the TOS of a site that you're not even visiting.

Furthermore, I just posted a question there, and in no way had to agree to transfer copyright ownership to them--only rights to reuse the question. Their cease and desist threats are fraudulent.
- jobenjo 17y agoYeah, fair enough. This is really more about Twitter's TOS than ours. We're not trying to start a legal battle, but this feels like infringement.
- mbreese 17y agoOf course you're trying to start a legal battle. You're using the words 'cease and desist' and infringement. At least that what is seems like to me from a quick read of the post and comments here. If you're not trying to start a legal battle, what's the point? Are you trying to shame them into doing what you want?
- semiotomatic 17y agoThe point isn't that Fluther's TOS are being violated... it's merely that stripping out the attribution link makes it look like the question was asked by another user on another site.
- sjs382 17y agoI think it's pretty clear that the question is asked by http://twitter.com/fluther http://twitter.com/fluther.
