While humorous, this seems actively malicious and I don't think McDonalds will look at it very favorably…
It definitely is malicious if he actually places orders. Jail seems like a possibility if every restaurant actually is affected.

You’re essentially asking what the chance that the author kills themselves in the near future. It would be poor taste to speculate on that.

No, I think they're referring to the part where Aaron was "made an example of" by an overzealous prosecutor.

#14The map in the Twitter thread doesn’t seem to support this, but from the cities listed on the page it seems like the colder cities have more broken ice cream machines.

#15Not sure where this data is coming from but for months now I've been ordering ice cream through the McDonalds app only to find out when I get there that the machine is broken and that they can't cancel or refund the order, which ultimately results in a stressful cash refund. It's happened multiple times at various locations around Manhattan. Eventually I'll just use this method to get 30-day cash loans on my credit card.

Wouldn't he need to pay to actually place the order though?

Agree with you that this seems actively malicious, and because of the dollar amounts involved, is liable to get him in big trouble.

not down for me. I noticed Twitter can have issues with Firefox. Maybe its a browser problem?
