If Twitter Bans "Inauthentic" Networks, it is Only as Competition

"How dare you run an intsec op! This platform is for our intsec ops!" 

 

If they can catch cynical operators it's only due to experience which put cynical operations in their Conquest's First Law domain. 

Twitter has never made money.
How does a firm survive for 16 years without making money?
It's called "subsidies."
It's paid for by the government. In other words, it was bought by MiniTru. Do you think that, like your neighbours and the wage-slaves you know, they're dumb enough to buy things without getting a return on investment? They're not. 

No, the inevitable incompetence / Conquest #3 comes in with the fact their operations are terrible and probably counterproductive. They make a mess, they are gross and annoying, but aside from the vandalism, accomplish less than lighting the banknotes on fire for heat.


The other possibility is they're flailing. They kinda guess and ban folk because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so that they can say they're trying. The government made the opsec too tight and Twitter isn't allowed to know they're exploiting it, so... Nobody who spends more than $0 on disguising their operation will get caught. 

 

P.S. It's called 'mini' Tru due to the miniscule level of Tru found inside.
