Shadow banning that guy hard. He's pushing the envelope.


I think they do it this way: Twitter tracks all the referring URLs. If a specific URL points to a Twitter post that they don't want to go viral, they will allow only one or two views from that originating source, per IP seeking it.

That way the people who newly discover the shadow banned Twitter handle can't find out more about them to find more things to spread.

However, even though I used to be able to peruse Twitter much easier, at least I can still do it without logging in. I'll give them kudos for that.
