Days after requiring users to log in to view tweets on the web, Twitter has silently removed these restrictions.

    My city just had a major storm which killed power and cell data for a ton of people. Even when the power was back on, you couldn’t use your cell phone except on WiFi because the towers were still down. Phone calls just wouldn’t get through. Even texts often didn’t get through- the pharmacy texted me on Monday to tell me my pills were ready and I went there yesterday to ask why they weren’t ready yet.

    Would being able to see information on Twitter solved these problems? Of course not, but it might have at least kept me informed.

      Same thing, man. Go to the source. Why are you relying on a middleman like Twitter?

          Well the phone was working…on Wi-Fi….so like…you were still able to use google. I’m sorry but what you’re saying doesn’t make sense and now I’m confusing myself.
