To be fair, it's probably written in the fine prints of the user agreement 🤷🏻‍♂️

This would be heartbreaking if it was something that you were attached to.

Wow that is so fucked up but not surprising. Great advertising for #nostr
What I love the most about this is that they inform him that his handle will be "musicfan". My goodness, they couldn't have come up with anything cheesier 😂
Not your $44 Billion, not your Twitter. ...I mean X ....I mean shitter ......I mean shittier Twitter.
I feel sorry for the guy but this is what often happens when someone depends on a commercial platform.
The government can seize your house or bank account just as easily

On Twitter, you don't have full control over your digital identity, including the data associated with it. Nostr ftw! View quoted note →
Ouch. Poor dude. I mean 15 years of work. But it just shows now that if the option is available I'd rather build on bedrock (nostr)than any quicksand (centralised platforms)
Haha. Gotta love ODELL. It's a term of endearment. Wish he'd tell me the GFY.
I know they can do this but fuck me the optics of it are juat awful. If he had any sense he'd at least be making offers and then require an NDA from the people who take it. That way he can say "We made an offer and they refused. Our ToS has always stated @handles are property of twitter" It takes very little effort to write to the owner and simply say: "We're going to take this handle regardless as our tos allows but we'd rather make a you a fair cash offer before doing so as a gesture of good faith. Sign the Nda to receive your money" He really is a fucking tool.
This is really sad. Elon could at least offer money to try to get it from trade not from steal.
Dear user, we are stealing your handle, thanks for understanding. But, please, don't be sad, we have good news for you. Since we are sure you liked your previous handle, you can have the handle that proves you are a fan of your previous handle: @handlefan. Should this not satisfy you, you can also choose one of the following handles: @handle123 @handlehandle @handlelover As a token of appreciation for your forced cooperation, we will be changing your handle at no cost. Furthermore, we will not enforce any shadow banning of your account for publicly criticizing our decision over the next 24h* Sincerely, Centralized Platform Corp. *We reserve the right to implement any and every other disciplinary measure, should the criticisms be in violation of Centralized Platform's "Acceptable Criticisms to the Overlords Guidelines"
