I agree, Noah is a good person, just opinionated not a follower – warrior, on July 18, 2008 01:56

BlabberMouth says I'm not allowed to be rude? How does one define rude? I'm not sure I have ever heard of a legal standard of rude. Fact is that I was promised free expression by the administration of twitter. There was no terms and conditions clarified that made RSS feeds illegal on twitter. When twitter changed their own rules and then attempted to arbitrarily disable me I still abided by the new rule even if it had not existed before. It would seem this really gets into the essence of free expression. I have been denied that right that all Americans get. I was promised better by the administration here at twitter... I would not be complaining if it were not for the fact that @Jack had promised something different. I would not of come to twitter in the first place if I knew that there was a chaperone arbitrarily deciding regulations based on the hysteria of a few people who wanted to endanger the troops and got paranoid about their own actions. Twitter profiles are public html. Retweeting information is a form of standard community behavior here that most users enjoy. Why should I be denied what every other person on twitter has? If twitter feels that steaming information into twitter is bad then they should of clarified their position before censoring and destroying my free expression. What you are telling me is because you do not like my opinions that my rights should be denied. This is the essence of why I feel I have been discriminated against.

its coded badly. IE often does not conform to W3C standards and so hacks and stuff must be used to get it to run right, FF actually uses REAL W3C standards. – rantan, on July 17, 2008 18:05

that's a good question...its often the other way around, IE is supported and not firefox.. i dont know of any apps that are that way.. – rantan, on July 17, 2008 18:05

the latest version of firefox, version 3, fixed a lot of that memory hog problem. – rantan, on July 17, 2008 18:04

I hate IE both as a user and a webmaster. Need to explain why - come on, no jokes, please... I put a link to one of the several "let's get rid of IE" online campaigns at the footer of each one of my web sites. I ask every webmaster who has had the "pleasure" to make a site compatible with IE to join this practice.

There is no such thing as free. Every network, free or by fee has responsibility to its customers which are its users. How the network monetarizes itself is irrelevant to the customers!

If and when in the future Twitter sales itself to the highest bidder will it share the proceeds with its users or will it keep all the funds? Nothing is free!

Twitters employees have no right to disclose the privacy of its users like it has done here in the public forum! Twitter and its users have a private contract that needs to be respected and honored in privacy, not to have other users decide as to which user should participate on the network and which should not. This is discrimination.

You may not like Noah, agree with him, but this is not relevant with respect to his contract with Twitter.

Twitter representatives should not be in the business to take sides in a dispute between users.

Geez. Noah is extremely rude to the family members and friends of military personnel who then call him on it when he crosses the line of what they consider to be acceptable behavior. He gets penalized on a free social networking site who decide he's being unacceptable in his interactions with other users and then when someone calls him, and I guess you, on it, you start whining. To see this a constitutional issue is laughable. Noah is free to create his on app and network and say all kinds of nutty things to the few people who will choose to listen.

I did not come here to have someone tell me to, "Now get back on your meds." I hope you do not speak on behalf of Twitter Inc.

I hope an Official Twitter representative can address my concern. There is enough flaming and abuse on Twitter among all users. While I understand it is the culture on Twitter can we be professional here?

If Twitter official representative is not interested in discussing the restoration of @noahdavidsimon Twitter account I advice Noah to hire a lawyer and sue Twitter for defamation! His name should have never been libeled by Twitter employees in a public forum as Get Satisfaction!

This should have been addressed privately with proper explanation and respect by a Twitter representative. If the question of having multiple Twitter accounts is against Twitter TOS it should be noted in TOS and such accounts can be terminated, but terminating the original account is selective censorship and prejudice in violation of consumer rights to non-discrimination based on any factors covered under the USA Bill of Rights, one being Freedom of Speech!

Anyway, it is up to Noah to proceed as he thinks is best, but please all use respective language here and do not discriminate and abuse people who came to GS to speak to Twitter Inc.

Noah, please do not post your art work here, if you want Twitter people to address your concern. There is relevancy in comments to the appropriate venue!

Thank you,
Igor

Really interesting artwork. Really silly arguments about email our military being a threat to national security. You guys have obviously been living in a comic book during the last five years. You crack me up. Now get back on your meds.

This is the ugly side of the AntiZion Stalinist State of Twitter. Let us call a SPADE a SPADE. Censorship! The Hippie Commune is nothing but a walled community of bigots hiding behind ideals. I spoke out and they tried to shoot the messenger. The idealism here is nothing but a Chris Brogan pipe dream to sell products to blue state snobs. When a true speaker speaks... you CENSOR.

The question is if I broke the terms and conditions? The ANSWER is NO! When I built @Panopticons there was no limitation detailed against what I was doing.

Now months later twitter has arbitrarily destroyed my accounts. I'm not satisfied and neither should anyone else. twitter is dying and people are leaving in droves. The fail whale has very little to do with this. People are disillusioned with this company's agenda. At one time twitter reflected the desires of people who wanted a better form of social network. Instead what we are confronted with is the ugliest tyranny of an infrastructure ever put together. All the tech fixes in the world will not fix people's lost dreams.

Ok Noah, I think @noahdavidsimon is partially restored and you can send messages via Twitter! Still people cannot see the profile and your public timeline page! I hope this can be restored soon!

Thank you Twitter team for trying to clear this mess up!

Noah the points that you are raising about MailOurMilitary aka eMoms are valid and need to be examined! Also the PR firms involvement in this venture are troublesome!

I can see red flags all over the place when it concerns national security!

Is this organization a registered non for profit sanctioned by the USA government to do this type of work! Is there a security clearance and military oversight?

Noah you are not alone here! I have asked Social Media, SEO, and other Internet industry professional leaders to look into this!

If this company is running some sort of spoof, it will be exposed! If it is just being naive and unprofessional it needs to organize itself better and address the raised concerns by the public.

Let's all of us try to clear the situation up here! Noah is not Evil. His intentions are valid and good!

it is easier to circumvent a block if my account is gone. this isn't about right and wrong Igor. This is a vengeance by censorship. They have shown their true colors... blue with tyranny – Noah David Simon @TheAnalysis, on July 17, 2008 02:32

Jason, from my experience with Noah he is a nice guy! He does go extreme on some issues, but many of us in Social Media do! We all have people we agree with and people we disagree with. Many Social Media people Flame each other to be popular and to get followers! Sometimes it gets nasty!

As you said it is not Twitter job to determine who is right and who is wrong! If it becomes so, Twitter will have problems of transparency in Social Media networks!

While I understand your concern about different Twitter account being used to circumvent a block, would it be possible to have Noah keep his original account? @noahdavidsimon I think if we can come to such a compromise it would be fair to everybody!

What do you think?

Thank you,
Igor

My account was disabled yesterday out of the blue. I dont create groups, rarely message, and in reality don't use facebook a whole lot other then to keep up on events and friends news. The only thing I can figure out is that I was aggregating to much into my news feed, although they released the features for us to do that so I don't know.

I emailed them twice already with the only response being from the automated mailer.

if they ever decide to re enable my account, will i get my pictures and groups back??? i lost the pictures from my computer, they r pics of my daughter and my family : ( : (

pls reply on my email :

falak_82@hotmail.com

thanks

Hey after reading all of these emails I didn't realize just how bad the situation is on face book. I created a group yesterday and it took me hours to compile the right research for the group - LGBT arts community [the pink brush] - I sent out about 10 messages explaining what the group is about and and then Fb disabled me with out pre-warning me b4 hand. I am on FB 24/7 all of my friends and family are on my fb and without there email address I can not get in touch to tell them what has happened and I am sure they are gonna be just as worried back. If I'd have known I wouldn't have even opened the group in the first place, but I suppose I was just trying to do one good deed helping and gathering out fellow LGBT artists globally. I feel that this is deeply unfair and I am extremely depressed about this situation I have taken time off work today to try and rectify the problem but all I got was an automated message saying they have received the enquiry and they will get back to me as soon as possible pls pls pls can somebody help me I am so very upset about this.
