People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
No international politcs
Be excellent to each other.
Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

I think the price difference has more to do with scale than it does data. The main reason good, simple products can't be cheaper is because the small companies who make them can't put in the same gigantic bulk orders of raw materials, nor do they have the specialized manufacturing processes or assembly lines.

The data is damn near an afterthought. Putting a touchscreen on a fridge is a great way to pretend a piece of shit is a premium product. If they can scrape your data too, then for sure they'll go for it, but the main reason the screen is on there is because most people are still buying that shit.
