I don't think anyone cares about what candaians who think they are Americans believe simply because they live nearby.
As subjects of the King, canadians have no understanding of liberty, nor the founding principles of the American nation. They fled as soon as people suggested defiance. Subjugation is in the veins of canadians.
Prior to Twitter's acquisition by Musk, they worked quite closely with the State and even hired the former top FBI lawyer as their chief legal counsel.
It's a big holiday weekend in America, and having an outage seems like a minimal inconvenience, especially for those of us without an account.
There are entire communities of people who relied on the ability to simply read Twitter without an account, took the time to write code of their own, and now are reacting with much more maturity than HN seems to be. The petty personal attacks are simply astonishing.

Many of us privacy freaks were content accessing via Nitter, and had no use for directly connecting our personal machines to the site, nor registering. I am curious if we were considered bots.
Time will tell, but I doubt anyone has the actual explanation for what is going on exactly.
