Interesting take: if Twitter is required for emergency response, should it not be public infrastructure?

If not, good on Turkey for shutting down a communication channel that will just add more misery and suffering to the human experience during this awful catastrophe.

Seems to me it would be useful as public infrastructure.

So if it is, it sure seems like the company needs to be regulated to provide a quality of service.

I agrée it is an interesting take. Even though I despise Twitter, I would want all communication channels possible.

Except they block it because of critical voices aimed at govt response and corruption, it's just suppression tactic.
