        I was on a news site yesterday that had an embed that asked if I wanted to see Twitter content or not. And I was like, “Why would I need to see and give views to a Tweet that you’re describing in this article? NOPE.” And opted out. It was great. I hope more sites do this in the future

          I often look up the tweets/original news stories just because media often twists the context or grasps at straws to make for a flashier headline.

            Kid named, I don’t need to give Elon the views when the article quotes the entire tweet. It’s not like they’re novels.

          It’s the cool big tech move to kill your business right now. Soon we’ll be seeing articles on why making site’s unusable hellscapes is good for future growth.
