Hey, Twitter — shouldn’t it be about the users?

As expected, Twitter on Thursday released new restrictions on how third-party apps and services can make use of the network — including caps on how much data they can access and strict requirements for how tweets must be displayed. Depending on whom you listen to, this is either a totally logical and even welcome move by a growing corporation, or a heinous betrayal of everything the company used to stand for, and a sign that it has completely lost its way.
