        Exactly what kind of creepy, overly invasive data harvesting is Twitter doing that they have the first clue about what any of us do offline? Pay no attention to your Big Brother in the corner stalking your every move... You dare have a bad thought? We saw you think it! Banned! https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1027346407534014464 …
