that just happened to me, in fact. Yesterday.

This is the point where the Twitter machine starts making an audible grinding noise and black smoke starts to pour out, isn't it?
-
Any evidence that it's something more than mis-tuned antispam measures?
-
Twitter is completely opaque. They have a system that *feels* exactly like punishment, but never explains a thing.
-
IOW, 'bug' or 'mistuned' doesn't really excuse anything. UI and policy are making people angry and paranoid.
-
People never like to feel punished, threatened or chastised but they get angry when they don't know why it's happening.
-
Sure. But, "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by shitty software" has high explanatory power.
-
Sufficiently advanced shitty software is indistinguishable from malice.
