TL;DR Summary

Twitter has faced criticism for implementing rate limiting without prior notice, limiting the number of tweets users could read per day.

While the move has had a minimal effect on advertising, it has disrupted user experience and led to the release of an exclusive, improved version of TweetDeck for verified accounts.
