At this point, does anyone expect #Twitter to not legally bully academics?
I agree with npub1fhd4zkhfp5ux4hhhpkkggfr23kmee58gkpfdy5ydhtglczd6yjrqjcq58c (npub1fhd…q58c) that this is unconscionable.
At the same time, it's more and more apparent that academia needs to migrate to the Fediverse.

quoting note1e9v…7wzcIt’s unconscionable that Twitter would deploy what remains of its legal team to bully academics into paying an obscene ransom in order to keep access to essential data. https://inews.co.uk/news/twitter-researchers-delete-data-unless-pay-2364535
The best hope for stopping this is regulatory action, particularly under the DSA.
