Twitkit

F*CK YOU @TWITTER! You've actually disabled my Twitter apps? #diediedie

What is it, @Twitter, with your service and your stupid software tricks. You're capping the amount of times I can actually post? Are you fucking kidding me? You're stopping me, one of your power-uses, from using the service? Or are you hating on Firefox add-ons and have gone the extra mile to disable all the add-ons am running from my browser?

Here's the messages am getting from all the Firefox extensions:

@Twitterfox: Twitter lower limit (less than 100 request per hour), request interval has been changed to 5 minutes.

@Twitbin: Sorry, twitter has reached its hourly reqquest limit on your account. Please hold tight and make sure you aren't running any other twitter services with this username.

@Twitkit: No message at all. it's completely dead.

@Twitterrific: Completely dead as well.

What amazes me is that am not even using the service that much these days because I've been so busy ---my rantings usually happy in the evenings when am watching TV or reading the news online.

Yet what really irritates me is that they've actually been able to disable all my Twitter apps without touching my computer. Now, if that is not a breach of privacy and an example of over-reaching power of "social media" companies, I don't know what is.
