Well, since Snapchat is a glorified nude-sharing app, it makes sense for the use case.
Just because it is used for that does not by any stretch mean that it is used primarily for that.

#22Those 'guce.advertising.com/collectIdentifiers' redirects on TechCrunch articles when you have an ad-blocker really make me go ballistic.
Is this only for EU users? I can't believe that this would be happening for long if it wasn't... https://i.imgur.com/uQp1yVD.png

#24I really don't get it. Twitter has five thousand full-time employees. I have to assume at least 20% of them are in product development in some capacity. What exactly are these people doing all day? I can't point to a single notable product innovation they've had in years. And they continue to ignore the drumbeat of user asking for an edit button, and are completely unable to come up with any kind of reasonable soluti…
I don't understand why anyone wants an edit button. Delete the tweet if you made a typo.
I'd really prefer I not retweet a funny joke and an hour later discover it's been edited into a neo-Nazi recruitment link or something.

I think all 5000 of them are busy "moderating" complaints. My account was suspended for 7 days for telling a youtuber (one I'd spoken with back and forth many times) that she had some clothes fluff in her armpit on pic she posted. Apparently that falls under harassment of a sexual nature and my appeal was denied within 15 minutes.

Snapchat has all these problems and people still enjoy the ephemeral nature of them.
Snapchat sends a notification to the sender when someone screenshots their content, will be interesting to see if Twitter does the same.
Twitter can't. Lots of people use third-party clients or the website, where detecting a screenshot simply isn't possible.

There are several pages that does this, another one is huffington post. I just don't visit them as I assume what they're doing is hostile to the users.
I'm in the EEA (almost EU) for reference. GDPR is valid here as well.

It would be a valuable experience for you and the health of Twitter, though.
