Reply to comment by __nickelbackfan__ in Twitter’s $42,000-per-Month API Prices Out Nearly Everyone | Tiers will start at $500,000 a year for access to 0.3 percent of the company’s tweets. Researchers say that’s too much for too little data by Hrmbee
It sounds like the goal is to get rid of and/or discredit independent research
No one will pay it, so research will die down. Some woll use scrapers, but then he can just claim they're inaccurate because they aren't "official" results from the API

Don't worry, he said those publishing "good" content will be except.
It's a good thing he has that trust and safety council or it would be all up to him what good content is...
It is amusing that he's not denying access to "bad" content publishers, they just have to give him money first. That's just so wonderful of him isn't it ;)

He must be pretty hard up for cash at this point, he's getting closer and closer to the Ed Edd and Eddy Jawbreaker pricing strategy.

How much you want to bet that right-wingers will still have access but left-wingers will have to pay?
