Yeah the real question is why they got a phone call with any heads-up, instead of immediate account revocation.

  I don't know, maybe because warning a company / person that they're doing something you don't like and giving them the chance to fix it is decent behavior? Or did we remove the concept of decency from our business vocabularies already?

    Warning spammers or deliberate ToS violators is now a matter of decency? The company admitted they knew they were in the wrong and that Twitter would eventually shut it down. I'm not sure how it's remotely a matter of decency when it comes to intentionally malicious actors. On reflection, it's almost certainly because the app was getting some press and Twitter wanted to make it clear what the situation was. Versus allowing the offender to pretend it was another issue or spin it against Twitter (though they seem to be trying!)
