Lol. That's true. I suspect that Xitter doesn't have the staff or engineering talent left to pivot to enforce any new rules internally. It should be possible to catch them in a constant automated ban without hitting anything worthwhile.

To operate there they would have to hire the staff back then, or not do so. That said, usually intent is all that matters, so if something gets through, so long as you showed efforts to prevent it and remove it in a reasonable manner, they would be fine.

Sure but an automated ban and manual review and removal could easily leave them blocked for more hours than not, each day.
