You blew it Twitter. I am totally disgusted that an American-based company would sell-out on the principles of Free Speech just to get a few dollars overseas. I have cancelled my Twitter account. I do not patronize sell-outs.

Semper Fi!

this is only the beginning of censorship. Wait till you see what happens next. Everyone back to using childrens toys and only a few chosen will be allowed to use the real thing as long as they can pay and behave the way big brother wants.
