[kictanet] Twitter Is Helping To Build An Alternative To Twitter

[Egline Jeptoo]

Interesting  conversation. What caught my attention is where Jack  says

*"**I feel a ban is a failure of ours ultimately to promote healthy
conversation. And a time for us to reflect on our operations and the
environment around us." *

Again, does it mean many users have been breaching the terms and
conditions?

Kind Regards
