Twitter is now blocking anonymous browsing entirely, demanding that everyone be logged in, as far as I can tell.
Can anyone not logged in view this, for example?

I’m Black and I don’t need Affirmative Action to succeed!
Here, I just setup an account on Twitter:
mail: jstosselbergmailinator.com
user: stosselber17036
pass: 1VeryEasyPW!
Have fun, it's an entirely throwaway account. You can lock me out of it if you want and take it over if you like, just don't.

If you think black people cant succeed in a merit based system then you are racist.
I’m a former foster kid and I created a successful pancake company called http://cousints.com/ because of hard work!

It would be interesting to know exactly how they are doing the blocking.
You block google from searching this site.
Twitter will probably end up blocking the new account you made, but I'm enjoying using it in the meantime, just because they don't want me to use it.

I thought I did, but Google does not respect robots.txt and was indexing patrick.net anyway!
I'll write a post about that:

Thanks!
How did they even find your IP? Just scanning them all?
Twitter is still posting all-time records for user-seconds of engagement. Only "woke" companies aren't advertising, and they can't afford to not be in the Marketing game for long.
I doubt that.
I think he just wanted more logged in users because they are more valuable to advertisers and to the CIA/FBI/NSA. I know that they still infest Twitter.
So he makes the site require login for a while, people log in, then he drops it, but most people will stay logged in.
