Can any iOS developers comment on whether or not Twitter required special permission from Apple or this is simply something any iOS app can do? I'v read conflicting comments online.
If it's the latter, I guess we should be thankful they bothered to tell us, because there are surely other apps that aren't.

- oliyoung 12y agoCountdown to Apple slapping this down in 3… 2…
- ryanhuff 12y agoCountdown to deleting the app. 3...(delete) How foolish of them.
- RexRollman 12y agoI recently installed the app on my iPhone and created a randomly named, radio-silent Twitter account just to follow privacy and encryption advocates. Seems ironic to remove the app for privacy reasons.

- benguild 12y agoApple apparently did throttle this in a recent iOS update. You used to be able to scan thousands of URLs quickly, but that now takes longer. Most likely due to abuse.
