    I think they still blocking, perhaps by IP? I still see the login page.

      Same here.

      Aha - it’s potentially a smart solution for them. Specific tweet links - the thing that they were losing the most traffic from, possibly - still work fine without login. You can’t do just general browsing, though. This is what the article mentioned but weren’t 100% clear about it.

        I see. So I guess that will maybe stop google from deindexing them. I’m wondering how long it will take Elmo to figure out that this will block indexing new tweets.
