My feelings towards Twitter have absolutely no bearing on their contract with PeopleBrowsr. Of this I'm aware.
They might want to consider PR though. But, to be honest, I think they have considered it, and their position is "we don't care what the neck-beards think about us anymore, @katyperry is trending!"
So I'm a neck-beard and I take offense to this. It's practically what they want.
I don't see what's to get up in arms about. As far as I can tell Twitter wants to use 3 re-sellers not cut access. Honestly, this seems more inline with an ecosystem and far less prone to abuse. Just look at what adding 3rd party re-sellers aka "domain name registrars" did to the DNS market.
