Twitter Banning Anyone Whose Date of Birth Says They Joined Before They Were 13 (motherboard.vice.com)

Seems like it wouldn’t be all that difficult for Twitter to give users the option to delete tweets made before they turned 13 or to deactivate their account.

This seems like a last minute knee-jerk reaction to me.

Given that a single tweet can (now) ruin your life, allowing minors on Twitter seems like rank irresponsibility.
