#2> 'fesses up
Can we have proper English at least in the HN submission titles? I know that this is a direct quotation of the original, but "confesses" is much clearer and more readable than the original slang term.

Agreed. I am non-native English speaker and first I thought it something about Twitter had messed up..

It is something that Twitter has messed up (edit: Again). They shared data that they should not have.

Can we just not post anything from TechCrunch? Their website is horribly anti-user.

#6Reminds me of an ex-Amazon ad exec, Kivin Varghese, 'fessing up about the wrongs in the business dealings there and eventually getting the boot [0]. The only difference is that perhaps Twitter, as a company, is 'fessing up and not any individual working against the interests of a company.
Seems like all sides of the ad-industry is a giant cess pool, and no one's playing it fair.

Heh on my HN client for Android (Material) I never could open TechCrunch articles with the built-in browser. I gave up on using the built-in browser as a result. I wouldnt outright ban TechCrunch but I agree it can be entirelt unusable.
Sidenote: Wondering if anybody outside of Google offers an embedded browser component for Android like Mozilla and co. They might be able to provide a better experience.

Mozilla has GeckoView[1]. They also distribute a set of helper components for building browser-like applications on Android called Mozilla Android Components[2].

Aside from that I'm also using this client on my phone, and I stopped using the built-in browser as well. I've configured the app to use my native browser which means I now get all the benefits from that when reading articles in Material (like having uMatrix on).
