Wow, that is ALWAYS a bad sign. Any talent that hasn't already left is going to once Twitter starts getting funny with their money.

I can't help but think that VPN providers all eventually have to cave to law enforcement. If they don't, they will experience pressure from credit card processors, the same way that sex workers do and OnlyFans did.

Local hardware stores died out years ago. They can't compete with the supply chains of the big box stores and online stores.

It is kind of strange how before, HN was an altar of Musk devotees praising him and his crusade for Free Speech Absolutism. And now, it's crickets. While the changes he's making are far worse than imagined, no one that wasn'

I think a rewards program is far less priority compared to processing actual transactions. If a credit card provider can't process transactions, it's essentially a dead company. Same for these exchanges stopping withdrawals.

Who's being defrauded? How are the parody accounts taking receipt of anything that is intended for the people they are parodying? And David Daleiden did a whole lot more than just make a parody Twitter account[1] [1] https:/&#x2

Why should impersonation be a problem? A true free-speech absolutist would think impersonation and parodying are okay.
